Our only purpose at TOBAM is to increase our clients risk reward. Taking into account the authoritarian risk exposure is aimed at contributing to this unique objective.
Geopolitical tensions are resurfacing around the world, reminding investors of the importance to monitor portfolio exposure to the ‘autocracy risk driver’. In the long-run, investors exposed to authoritarian regimes are subject to the consequences of instability, social unrest, corruption, and war.
Democracy works, autocracy doesn’t!
TOBAM's Journey into Human Rights
TOBAM’s journey started as early as 2009, as we chose Human Rights as our field of philanthropy.
After sponsoring Amnesty International, TOBAM partnered with Human Rights Watch and with TOBAM’s support, Human Rights Watch opened its office in Kiev. This office has proven instrumental for :
– monitoring of the Ukrainian conflicts
– enabling research and advocacy with officials and local activists.

Authoritarian investment risk:
4 main conclusions (...and counting!)
TOBAM’s commitment does not come from a moral standpoint, but from a business one: because supporting civil liberties and democracy works from a business perspective and is fully aligned with clients’ interests.

TOBAM’s original and extensive research on portfolio’s authoritarian exposure leads to four main conclusions:
1. There is an autocracy risk driver,
2. The autocracy risk driver is negatively rewarded over time,
3. Most of a portfolio’s exposure to the autocracy risk driver is indirect
4. The autocracy driver is independent from other risk drivers.
Listen to Yves Choueifaty, TOBAM President and Founder, as he explains why and how to address the autocracy factor in a portfolio.
There is a strong rationale for any investor to address the investment risk linked to authoritarian regimes. That’s why TOBAM developed an original way to efficiently identify and manage it.
