Modernes Compounder-Framework (Fundsmith)

Terry Smiths Anlagestrategie

Terry Smith's Fundsmith framework - 'buy great companies, don't overpay, do nothing.' Modern proof that the value-investing playbook still works: Smith has beaten the global index by ~5% annualised over 15+ years running Fundsmith. The strictest scorer of the seven by design. No banks, no cyclicals, no commodity producers - they fail the quality floor.

Die Strategie in einfachen Worten

ROCE ≥ 20% - Smith's hard floor. Sustained 5-year ROCE ≥ 18%.
Gross margin ≥ 45% AND operating margin ≥ 20% - pricing power that survives a downturn.
FCF / Net income ≥ 95% - Smith's 'owner earnings = reported earnings' rule.
Net margin ≥ 15% - real bottom-line profitability, not accounting.
Almost no debt - net debt / EBITDA ≤ 1.5×.
Revenue CAGR ≥ 7% and EPS CAGR ≥ 10% - compounding, not just defending.
P/E ≤ 35 - pay up for quality, but not at any price.
