Value Investing According to Browne

Value Investing According to Browne

Those of you have read anything or even, possibly, everything written about Warren Buffett, you would know that he has said many flattering things about Charles Browne and Forrest Tweedy and the brokerage-come-funds-management firm they founded Tweedy Browne LLC.

From their website; The Firm’s 93-year history is grounded in undervalued securities, first as a market maker, then as an investor and investment advisor. The Firm’s investment approach derives from the work of the late Benjamin Graham, co author of the first textbook on investment research, Security Analysis (1934) and author of The Intelligent Investor (1949). Graham, through his investment firm Graham-Newman Corp., was one of the Firm’s primary brokerage clients in the 1930s, 1940s, and 1950s. It was through Graham that the original partners of the Firm developed brokerage relationships with investment legends Walter Schloss and Warren Buffett, and met Tom Knapp, who joined the Firm in 1957 from Graham-Newman and led its conversion from broker to investor.
