Kamlesh Ratadia founded Axia with the conviction that the residual income method is the ideal approach for business valuation. It prioritizes economic profit, considers equity cost, and corrects accounting distortions. The intrinsic value of a company encompasses all cash flows from now to eternity, highlighting the significance of free cash flow in assessing investment opportunities. Axia's structured valuation framework, emphasizing economic profit growth over earnings, facilitates the identification of value discrepancies and helps in consitently generating excess investment returns.
With a team of skilled professionals sharing similar values and complementary skills, Axia focuses on making investment decisions where we have established expertise, while minimizing the impact where we do not. We are passionate in our commitment to continuous improvement in the efficiency and effectiveness of our investment decisions and in the delivery of client service. Alignment with our clients is crucial, and a significant portion of founders' wealth is co-invested alongside client funds, emphasizing our commitment to their success.
Axia exists to provide high-quality investment management services to institutional and high-net-worth clients. As a specialist boutique firm in an industry dominated by large asset management companies, our goal is to deliver both exceptional client service and superior risk-adjusted returns over a full market cycle.
