GAMCO Small Cap Value
Separate Account
GAMCO is credited by the academic community with establishing the Private Market Value (PMV) with a Catalyst™ investment approach and applying this philosophy towards the analysis of public equity securities. The firm’s value-oriented stock selection process is based on the investment principles first articulated in 1934 by Graham and Dodd, the founders of modern security analysis, and further augmented by GAMCO’s founder, Mario J. Gabelli. GAMCO has utilized the same investment philosophy for over 40 years, and this shared investment lens promotes a clarity of investment principles and a compounded, accumulated knowledge of companies and industries over decades.
The GAMCO investment team seeks to invest in attractive businesses trading at a meaningful discount to its PMV, poised to benefit from catalysts (company-specific, industry, regulatory, macro) that will unlock or surface company value. The team prefers cash-generating franchise businesses that command long-term pricing power, and assesses companies for solid financial health, with balance sheet flexibility and liquidity that may mitigate idiosyncratic risk.
What distinguishes GAMCO’s approach is its benchmark agnostic research universe, allowing the investment team to identify attractive thematic ideas from across the globe – in all market environments, in all investment styles and across all capitalization sizes. Using a long-term investment horizon is an advantage for following industry trends and building conviction in investment ideas.
