In times of rising uncertainty, individuals increase investments in the protection of their belongings. Companies and governments earmark increasing amounts of money for physical and IT infrastructure security. Ever stricter regulation leads to more efforts in areas such as for example health protection, food analysis or transportation safety. Today, the need for more safety and security instruments and services is greater than ever. Credit Suisse will show you how to best capture this long-term growth opportunity.
Rapid technological changes and new fields of application continually shape our daily lives. By the same token, ongoing new developments in research (e.g. in the fields of medicine, technology or IT security) influence our thoughts and actions.
As a basic human need, security is a stable component in today’s changing times. The need for security has escalated significantly and is expected to continue growing.
Aspects of security, safety and protection affect everyone, from governments and businesses to private individuals. Globalization, demographic development, stricter regulation as well as technological innovation are long-term secular growth drivers within this segment. Innovative companies are responding to the strong need for security solutions with an increasing number of products and services. Accordingly, the security, safety and protection industry has grown significantly over the past few years. The security, safety and protection industry is well diversified and encompasses a very large number of companies. Our experienced investment team has developed its own valuation model for analysing companies and has established a unique global network of industry experts, researchers and analysts.
“Security and safety related aspects for a cleaner, safer and healthier world are an integral part of our daily lives” Denis Schmidli, Director Thematic Equity Specialist.
