Investment Strategy
Southeastern Asset Management follows a long-term, concentrated, engaged value investing approach rooted in Ben Graham’s discipline. The firm’s generalist research team builds high-conviction portfolios by identifying high-quality businesses trading at a discount to intrinsic value, managed by capable leadership. Their investment horizon typically exceeds five years; portfolio managers and analysts collaborate globally across mandates, seeking to drive long-term value through active engagement with portfolio companies. The firm deliberately maintains a concentrated number of positions and leverages short-term market inefficiencies to invest in undervalued equities.
