Where skill meets precision

Harris Associates has been investing in US value since 1976. Its long-term, patient approach allows the team to look beyond the short-term noise and wait for price and value to converge. Their investment philosophy focuses on the three tenets: (1) Buy businesses at a significant discount to their estimate of intrinsic value; (2) Invest in companies expected to grow per share value over time; (3) Invest with management teams that think and act as owners. They conduct rigorous fundamental research on companies across industries in search of undervalued, growing businesses with aligned management teams.
