Investment strategy

Key pillars for capital preservation or growth include emphasis on liquidity and conservatively managed portfolios, keeping costs low and preventing irreparable damage. Core to the philosophy of Laaken is setting up risk and cost efficient investment portfolios. We invest directly in a selection of individual shares and bonds with a long-term horizon.

Our model portfolios

Defensive Balanced Offensive

There are risks associated with investing in securities. Investing in stocks and bonds involve risk of loss. Loss of principal is possible. A security’s or a portfolio’s past investment performance is not a guarantee or a prediction of future investment performance.

Investment Thesis

Universal Music Group

"Universal Music Group (UMG) is the world’s largest music label. They own a large and growing collection of irreplaceable music rights that we expect to increase in value over time. Music consumption has been steadily increasing, driven by the rise of streaming. UMG is a direct beneficiary of this secular trend, as it essentially earns a tax (or royalty) on music consumption."
