Investment Process

The research process at Third Avenue is team oriented. All portfolio managers consider themselves to be analysts first and foremost, and actively contribute to the pool of investment ideas.

Our team of portfolio managers and analysts meets formally twice a week. Everyone participates in the discussions, which review potential new purchases, possible candidates for sale, as well as current holdings. The meetings are led by our Chief Investment Officer Curtis Jensen.

The research process is guided by Third Avenue's deeply ingrained fundamental value philosophy and bottom-up analytical approach.
