  2. Understanding “Top Down” and “Bottom Up” investing – By Prof. Simply Simple™

  3. TOP DOWN AND BOTTOM UP “Top Down” and “Bottom Up” style of investing is one of the most common terms used in fund management. Hence I felt these would be relevant terms to explore

  4. TOP DOWN AND BOTTOM UP Let’s look at an example.Let’s say Sam is a US based businessman wanting to set upa software business.

  5. TOP DOWN AND BOTTOM UP For a software business he would need software engineers.So instinctively his mind wanders to India which is known have an abundant supply of software engineers

  6. TOP DOWN AND BOTTOM UP Once he has decided that it is India which shall be the sourceof supply of software engineers, he then decides to contact anHR consultant in India to line up people. He then interviews the engineers one by one and makes his selections.

  7. TOP DOWN AND BOTTOM UP In this example his decision to select India as the source of software engineers represented the top-down approach while the detailed selection process involving interviews and references etc represents the “bottom-up” approach.

  8. TOP DOWN AND BOTTOM UP In the event of fund management similarly the fund manager’s decision of investing in emerging markets would represent the “Top-Down” approach while the detailed selection process of companies based on size, turnover, profitability, management quality etc would represent the “Bottom-Up” approach.

  9. TOP DOWN AND BOTTOM UP So that’s “Top-Down” and“Bottom-Up” for you.Hope you’ve understood the concept

  10. TOP DOWN AND BOTTOM UP Hope this lesson has succeeded in clarifying the meaning of “Top-Down” & “Bottom-Up” approach to investing.
