Industry Focus
Stern Stewart & Co has implemented its Economic value added methodology in over 860 companies globally in all industries; ranging from banking to resource companies and industrial concerns to services businesses in all geographies. The firm believes the technology is applicable to all businesses and the secret lies in customising the metric to suit the particular organisation's culture and strategic drivers. The firm has published numerous books on the subject.
Stern Stewart Capital Partners, however, focuses on five key industries namely (i) energy - specifically alternative, cleaner energy sources (ii) resource technologies - rather than investing in the mineral resources itself it prefers new methods of mining and upgrading those resources (iii) financial services - including insurance and banking for the developing markets (iv) logistics and warehousing - areas that promote free trade in underserviced areas and (v) consumer products such as non-alcoholic beverages.

Famous quotes containing the words industry and/or focus:
“My plan of instruction is extremely simple and limited. They learn, on week-days, such coarse works as may fit them for servants. I allow of no writing for the poor. My object is not to make fanatics, but to train up the lower classes in habits of industry and piety.”
—Hannah More (1745–1833)
“If we focus mostly on how we might have been partly or wholly to blame for what might have been less than a perfect, problem- free childhood, our guilt will overwhelm their pain. It becomes a story about us, not them. . . . When we listen, accept, and acknowledge, we feel regret instead, which is simply guilt without neurosis.”
—Jane Adams (20th century)
