Given the current environment, we believe now is a particularly good time to revisit and reemphasize our commitment to the concept of Dividend Integrity. Given all that is going on in the economy, markets, and banking sector, most agree it is a good time to focus on businesses that demonstrate an unusual amount of consistency and predictability. We believe companies that exhibit Dividend Integrity are better equipped to withstand macroeconomic headwinds, maintain earnings, and sustain and raise dividends over time.
In this episode, we sit down with John Crawford, IV, CFA®, the firm’s Managing Director of Equity Investments to discuss this core tenet of the firm’s investment philosophy. In addition to being available on our website, we are pleased to announce that our podcasts are now available on Spotify, Apple Music, or wherever you get your podcasts.
