They were featured on the Value Creation podcast last week. Might be helpful fodder.
I’ve heard Berkshire’s industry teams have different reputations / performance. Any truth to that or is experience more standardized?
I think that's true although I think the Associate experience is generally pretty standardized. Of their four sectors of focus (Business & Consumer Services, Healthcare, Industrials and Tech & Comms) I think anecdotally their Industrials and Healthcare teams are quite strong. Basing this off of their SRS deal with Leonard Green and their investment in IVC which seem to be both strong performers.
