Key Differentiators

Deep Value Investor

We seek investment opportunities that trade at a discount to readily ascertainable valuations and are often contrarian or special situation in nature

Balance Sheet Focused with a Long-Term Horizon

Third Avenue’s investment philosophy demands financial strength, which enables our portfolio holdings to both endure challenges and grow value over time

Focus on Total Return

Our goal is to provide above-average performance, most of the time and over the long term, while seeking capital preservation through investing in companies that typically have tangible assets that are often difficult to replicate; the strategy may serve as a non-correlating element to more mainstream value strategies

International Universe

Our approach is opportunistic, seeking value in economic and industrial recessions, complex corporate structures or capital structures and special situations in both developed and emerging non-US markets

High Conviction, Active Portfolio Management

We actively manage the portfolio by prudently concentrating on our highest conviction ideas, and by holding cash when there are fewer buying opportunities

Objective:

Our strategy seeks long-term capital appreciation by investing opportunistically across a non-US universe of sectors, geographies and security types to build a differentiated portfolio of contrarian and special-situation opportunities. The strategy’s investments are generally characterized by what we believe are strong financial positions, valuation supported by tangible assets and market prices substantially below our estimate of intrinsic business value.
