That’s why we built Saguaro Capital Management. We are modern value investors with a unique and proven ability to fuse deep human-led fundamental research with hypermodern technology to produce exceptional long-term investment results. Our investment philosophy is simple: Find the best businesses on earth, buy them only at a meaningful discount to intrinsic value, then allow them to compound for as long as possible. We partner with sophisticated institutional investors who benefit from our diverse expertise, intellectual curiosity, and transparent investment approach. As owners and operators of the firm, our capital is also invested alongside our investors, which creates a strong alignment of interests. Philanthropy and charitable giving in the communities in which we work and live is also a value that Saguaro holds dearly.
