Clear Thinking. High-Conviction Investing. Global Perspective.
Matthew Wolf is a global investment professional focused on long-term portfolio construction, fundamental company research, and disciplined, high-conviction allocation across international markets.
With a background in institutional investment and years of experience analysing companies across the US, Europe, and Asia, Matthew approaches markets with a simple philosophy: block out the noise, do the work, and back the ideas you believe in.
Current Focus Areas
Matthew’s current work centres on three long-term themes shaping global markets. Each area reflects deep fundamental research, high-conviction allocation, and a disciplined approach to risk. Rather than chase noise or short-lived trends, Matthew focuses on structural shifts — sectors where innovation, cash-flow durability, and multi-year growth stories align.
He sees the energy transition as an investment cycle driven by both traditional supply needs and new-generation demand.
Artificial Intelligence
AI remains a central long-term theme, influencing productivity, infrastructure, and corporate strategy. Matthew’s approach emphasises established global businesses with durable competitive advantages and measurable cash-flow growth.
Emerging Markets & Global Banks

PT Bank Central Asia – Indonesia’s strongest bank, now trading at an attractive valuation
China Merchant Bank – entered on deep discount; sold after re-rating
Energy: LNG, Renewables & the Permian Basin
- Battery and renewable-energy innovators
