IAML constructs portfolios based on in-house research which aims to identify the investment opportunities most likely to provide the strongest long-term returns. The firm's UK equity team follows a self-described pragmatic approach with no style bias regarding sectors, stocks or market-cap. Their valuation-orientated approach focuses on absolute returns and risk, allowing the portfolio to capture opportunities over time. In addition to high alpha UK equity, the team also manages small-cap equity and benchmark-relative portfolios. IAML’s fixed-income team manages retail and institutional accounts, combining macro and bottom-up credit analysis to determine investment opportunities.

The firm typically adopts a long-term investment horizon when selecting equities, basing their investment decisions on in-house criteria and focusing on the firm's prospects over a five-year horizon.
