Warren Buffett is one of the world’s most famous investors and the 3rd richest man in America according to the Forbes 400 list of wealthiest individuals.

He was born in Omaha, Nebraska on August 30, 1930, and has been nicknamed as the ‘Oracle of Omaha’ due to his incredible investment track record.

He has been the Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of Berkshire Hathaway for more than 40 years and he has been acquiring different businesses since he took charge of the company.

Berkshire grew over time by using its insurance business as a vehicle that provided interest-free cash flow, known as ‘float’, which is the money that the insurance business holds temporarily until claims are filed against the insurance policies it issues.

Buffett’s investment philosophy initially concentrated around businesses that were undervalued by the market based on a disparity in their net book value vs. their market value, but it has evolved towards long-term value investing.

He evaluates and identifies businesses with strong competitive advantages that are fairly valued or undervalued by the market and take long positions on them.
