Long Term: Tweedy Browne, from Benjamin Graham's broker to value icon with Tobias Carlisle on The Acquirers Podcast

Tweedy, Browne Company LLC was established in 1920 as a dealer in closely held and inactively traded securities. The firm's 100-year history is grounded in undervalued securities, first as a market maker, then as an investor and investment advisor. The firm's investment approach derives from the work of the late Benjamin Graham, co-author of the first textbook on investment research, Security Analysis (1934) and author of The Intelligent Investor (1949). Graham, through his investment firm Graham-Newman Corp., was one of the firm's primary brokerage clients in the 1930s, 1940s, and 1950s. It was through Graham that the original partners of the firm developed brokerage relationships with investment legends Walter Schloss and Warren Buffett, and met Tom Knapp, who joined the firm in 1957 from Graham-Newman and led its conversion from broker to investor. In 1959, the partners of then Tweedy, Browne & Knapp pooled their capital in a partnership investment vehicle. In 1968, the firm accepted its first outside money management clients as limited partners of this vehicle.
