How we work
“What’s needed is a sound intellectual framework for making decisions and the ability to keep emotions from corroding the framework.” — Warren Buffett
At the heart of DivGro lie dividends. Not any dividends: only those that grow rapidly and consistently, and which are paid by outstanding companies. Why? Because dividends are the most reliable proxies for true company performance. (Plus, they are universally understood and easy to see and touch given they are paid in cash). But how do we know this to be true?
Enter The Gordon Growth Model. In the late 1950s and early 60s, MIT Professor Myron Gordon and his Nobel Prize-winning team set out to determine the best and most predictive variable to reflect intrinsic company performance. Their findings? Over time and at various points in time, the rate of change in the dividend is reflected by a roughly commensurate rate of change in the share price. Simply put: if, for example, a company can grow its dividend every year for a long time at a rate of 13 per cent per year, over time and at various points in time, its share price is expected to also appreciate at 13 per cent per year.
Where the dividend goes, the share price follows.
On that basis, DivGro developed its philosophy that:
→If you could identify those uninterrupted dividend growers (ie companies which can grow their dividends rapidly and consistently every year) and;
→If you on-paid and encouraged investors to anticipate those receipts in their bank accounts and;
→If you communicated this dividend growth progress actively, systematically, and understandably, then:
1) The Gordon Formula can be redeployed to enable investors to focus on dividend progress as their arbiter of success and;
2) By implementing a weekly feedback loop that anchors investors to positive data points and recalibrates investor focus, DivGro arms investors with a sound psychological framework. This enables investors to follow a company’s true underlying value rather than focus on the erratic behaviour of its share price and therefore bolsters the likelihood of achieving their desired investment outcomes.

Force500 is a unique and invaluable investment product designed and managed by DivGro.
Born out of DivGro’s pioneering innovation in psychologically-enhanced investing, Force500 redeploys this unique investment framework by overlaying it onto the S&P500, the most widely followed market index.
Applying the same foundational handholding, investors in Force500 develop a much greater resilience against the inevitable, frequent and destabilising market gyrations and in turn bolster their chances of actualising their desired investment outcomes. Without Force500, history shows most investors tracking the index fall victim to emotional pitfalls that result in untimely exits or worse results than envisaged.
