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:
“The Founding Fathers in their wisdom decided that children were an unnatural strain on parents. So they provided jails called schools, equipped with tortures called an education. School is where you go between when your parents can’t take you and industry can’t take you.”
—John Updike (b. 1932)
“While the focus in the landscape of Old World cities was commonly government structures, churches, or the residences of rulers, the landscape and the skyline of American cities have boasted their hotels, department stores, office buildings, apartments, and skyscrapers. In this grandeur, Americans have expressed their Booster Pride, their hopes for visitors and new settlers, and customers, for thriving commerce and industry.”
—Daniel J. Boorstin (b. 1914)
