European Opportunities Trust (EOT)

from JohnBaronPortfolios.co.uk · host John Hughman

Established in 1996, EOT is a European focused investment company which looks for what it describes as ‘special’ growth companies that are expected to experience higher than average earnings growth. The managers take a conviction approach, running a portfolio of between 25 and 35 positions. In this interview we speak to Chief Investment Officer Alexander Darwall about the company’s investment philosophy, emphasizing a long-term approach that focuses on identifying special companies with sustainable competitive advantages (citing examples like Novo Nordisk and Darktrace); the importance of patience and not panicking during market highs or lows; the challenges posed by macroeconomic factors in Europe, and how the company mitigates these by investing in globally diversified companies; and why he avoids sectors like utilities and commodities, instead favouring businesses with strong industry positions and pricing power.

The Last Outlaws Impact Studios at UTS In a History Lab season like no other, we're pulling on the threads of one of Australia's great misunderstood histories, moving beyond the myths to learn what the Aboriginal brothers Jimmy and Joe Governor faced in both life and death.Australia's budding Federation is the background setting to this remarkable story, that sees the Governor brothers tied to the inauguration of a 'new' nation and Australia's dark history of frontier violence, racial injustice and the global trade and defilement of Aboriginal ancestral remains. This Impact Studios production is a collaboration with the Governor family, UTS Faculty of Law and Jumbunna Institute for Indigenous Education and Research.The Last Outlaws teamKatherine Biber - UTS Law Professor and Chief InvestigatorAunty Loretta Parsley - Great-granddaughter of Jimmy Governor and the Governor Family Historian Leroy Parsons - Governor descendant, Narrator and Co-WriterKaitlyn Sawrey - Host, Writer and Senior ProducerFrank Lopez - Writer, Managing Next Generation Energy Systems Cambridge University Background Stakeholders working with energy systems have to make complex decisions formulated from risk-based assessments about the future. The move towards more renewables in our energy systems complicates matters even further, requiring the development of an integrated power grid and continuous and steady transformation of the UK power system. Network flows must be managed reliably under uncertain demands, uncertain supply, emerging network technologies and possible failures and, further, prices in related markets can be highly volatile. Mathematicians working with engineers and economists, can make significant contributions to address such issues, by helping to develop fit-for-purpose models for next generation energy systems. These interdisciplinary approaches are looking to address a range of associated problems, including modelling, prediction, simulation, control, market and mechanism design and optimisation.
