Private ownership means we only answer to our clients
From day one, Capital Group Private Client Services and its parent organization have been owned entirely by a group of people who work here every day. We believe that private ownership is a cornerstone of our long-term approach to investing.
Among other things, it allows us to avoid the quarterly earnings pressures that can constrain publicly traded companies and lead to short-term thinking. It also gives us the freedom to put client needs first and make important strategic decisions that will benefit them—and not some outside shareholders—in the future.
The Capital Group Companies has one of the strongest and most liquid balance sheets of any private organization in the world. This didn’t happen by accident. It’s a very intentional part of our efforts to ensure that the firm is always on solid financial ground in both good times and bad.
Such prudence has served our clients and us well, allowing Capital to remain a vibrant, sound organization even during the most challenging economic times.
Perhaps the most powerful endorsement of our services is the fact that many of our clients are associates of The Capital Group Companies. These are the people who know us better than anyone.
