Vitaliy was recently asked by the CFA Institute to give a talk in London. But this offer was even more interesting than usual: it was a joint presentation with Guy Spier. Guy is a tremendous value investor who happens to be a good friend of Vitaliy. He was born in South Africa, spent his childhood in Iran and Israel, received an MBA from Harvard, and in 2008 got sick of the New York hedge fund rat race and moved with his family to Zurich. In this podcast, Vitaliy shares his friendship with Guy, and reviews his excellent book, The Education of a Value Investor.
