Founded in 1976, Harris Associates has been focusing on value investing. Its investment process has been tested through multiple market cycles.
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.

Source: Morningstar, Harris Associates. Past performance is not a guarantee of its future results. The performance indicated is based on the NAV (net asset value) of the share class, and is net of all charges applying to the fund but does not account for sale commissions, taxation or paying agent fees, and assumes that dividends if any are reinvested. Taking such fees or commissions into account would lower the returns. The performance of other share classes would be higher or lower based on the differences between the fees and the entry charges..
