The Capital Group is one of
the world's largest investment management organizations, but little is known about it
because the company has shunned any type of publicity. This compelling book, for the first
time, takes readers inside one of the most elite and private investment firms out there-the
Capital Group Companies-a value investment firm par excellence. It digs deeps to reveal
the corporate culture and long-term investment strategies that have made Capital the one
organization where most investment professionals would like to work and would most
recommend as long-term investment managers for their family and friends
