Ben Griffith (Miri Capital Management) on Emerging Markets Investing

SumZero Headlines

Ben Griffith of Miri Capital Management covers names you have probably never heard of in regions most investors shy away from. Over years of refining his strategy, Griffith has developed his own brand of friendly activist investing for emerging markets like Turkey, Bangladesh, Poland, and Vietnam to name a few. Where most investors see deficiencies, Griffith sees opportunities to correct international perception, craft a marketing narrative (often for the first time), refine the business model, and integrate ESG standards with his portfolio companies. In this week's episode, Griffith joins us to discuss his EM strategy, the reasons value becomes obfuscated outside of developed markets, and several case studies.
