From the Author

How do we improve and optimize our investing decision making? This was the goal of the first edition of this book. Now, about 5 years later, this journey continues with more insights and examples. We can use the Four Filters Invention of Warren E. Buffett and Charles T. Munger. Their four filters investing process helps us eliminate many inferior investing prospects. This filtering process helps us find high-quality winning investments. Their steps include evaluating a business' economics, its competitive position, its managers, and its intrinsic value. It provides us a tested and effective toolset.

The Four Filters Invention of Warren Buffett and Charlie Munger are a search for: "Understandable first-class businesses, with enduring competitive advantages, accompanied by first-class managements, available at a bargain price." In my view, Warren Buffett and Charlie Munger invented an investing formula that is underappreciated by the business and academic communities. It is an amazing intellectual achievement in both practical and Behavioral Finance. The filters are an important set of steps used by the world's greatest investors for finding high quality investments.
