Only the Best Will Do

The compelling case for investing in quality growth businesses

By: Peter Seilern

What if there was a uniquely safe place to put your money that also earned the best long-term returns?

In this new and updated edition of Only the Best Will Do, master investor Peter Seilern reveals everything you need to know to practise the art of quality growth investing: finding the companies that can reliably deliver steady and strong growth for the long term.

These are shares that can be safer than bank deposits or government bonds. They also upend conventional wisdom on the merits of diversification, and reveal typical index-hugging fund management as even more self-serving and unjustified than many thought.

Quality growth businesses are the ultimate assets for those serious about making their investments work for them over the long term while minimising the risk of permanent loss of capital. You don't even need to worry too much about overpaying. All quality growth investing requires is patience, independent thinking, and the special golden rules - revealed here in detail - for finding the very best companies in the world.

For the investor truly interested in making the most of their time in the markets, only the best will do.

One of the Best

One of the best books on investment I've read in some time. Should go down as a classic. Up there with Little Book that Beats the Market better than One Up on Wallstreet as far as classics go.

Great read

Great read! Main take away: quality growth companies are not the same as growth companies. Long quality growth companies!
