Ep. 12 | Evolutions: Crawford Dividend Growth Strategy

When something new is established, even if it is sound, it is not often a finished product. That was certainly the case with our Dividend Growth strategy. The important thing is that it was established on strong fundamental grounds. The idea of owning dividend-paying stocks and purchasing them when they represent value is classic investment philosophy. Add in the focus on quality and the process is enhanced. Over the years the process has evolved without losing its original, grounding instincts. Through the years we have been challenged by difficult economic and market conditions. By sticking with our knitting, that is, consistently employing the strategy on behalf of clients and never wavering in our belief in its efficacy, our clients have been rewarded with lower-risk, high-quality returns.

In this episode, we discuss the history of the Dividend Growth strategy and how the approach has evolved into its current, disciplined form. 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.
