Sprucegrove Investment Management Ltd.
Sprucegrove Investment Management Ltd., (Sprucegrove), is a boutique international and global equities investment management firm exclusively serving the institutional market since 1993. The firm is 100% employee-owned and we are proud of our diversity and inclusiveness: 69% of our shares are held by women, minorities, or both. As of June 30, 2021, Sprucegrove managed over $30 B CAD in AUM across their four equity mandates.
Since the firm was founded, two unchanging objectives have fueled our collective efforts: (1) provide our clients with above-average investment performance over the long-term and (2) provide every client with a boutique service experience. Our ethos is steeped in humility, passion for the business, a desire to learn and deep collaboration across the firm all aimed at achieving these two objectives. Remaining an independent firm not only reinforces our ability to execute our investment process but also deliver exceptional service to each of our clients. Simply put, we can focus on doing what’s right for our clients while effectively maintaining a long-term focus in managing the firm. Our ability to consistently execute on Sprucegrove’s two objectives explains why, across our clients, we are often one of the longest-standing asset managers they have, with many client partnerships spanning more than 15 years.
