LSV Asset Management is a quantitative value equity manager that provides active investment management for institutional investors through the application of proprietary investment models. The firm's investment approach is based on the premise that superior long-term results can be achieved by systematically exploiting the judgmental biases and behavioral weaknesses that influence the decisions of many investors. LSV uses a strictly quantitative investment model to identify out-of-favor, undervalued stocks that have the potential for near-term appreciation. Their portfolios typically have a deep value orientation relative to the indices. Market timing is not part of LSV's process and portfolios are generally fully invested with cash levels usually below 2%.LSV selects individual securities using a bottom-up, quantitative approach. All of their investment strategies use the same approach with investments segmented into different market-cap ranges and/or geographic regions. The firm uses a proprietary investment model to rank a universe of stocks based on a combination of value and momentum factors that they believe are predictive of future stock returns. LSV then overlays strict risk controls that limit the over- or under-exposure of the portfolio to industry and sector concentrations. LSV limits exposures in individual securities to ensure the portfolios are broadly diversified. Portfolio turnover is approximately 30% for each strategy. LSV also offers socially responsible investment portfolios.
