Wednesday, 21st October 2015, Fortitude’s Pre Christmas Celebration, Sydney

 

Hi all,

Feedback from Fortitude’s educational and celebratory evening showcasing the very impressive founder, major shareholder and former Chairman of Magellan Financial Group (MFG), Chris Mackay has been overwhelming.

Chris has been the CEO since inception back in 2006 of ASX listed Magellan Flagship Fund Ltd (ASX Code: MFF).  His track record is outstanding, with an impressive 7yr portfolio performance (including dividends) of 19.8%pa vs MSCI World benchmark of 6.3%pa … a staggering outperformance of 13.5%pa (to 30 Jun 15 Source: Bell Potter).

Chris kindly shared some of the key influences over his many years of investing in building out his investment style (including Benjamin Graham, Warren Buffett and Charlie Munger) as well as his views on long term investing in quality international businesses, including those within the MFF portfolio.
