Quotes:
“If I look back over my time in investing and think about the companies I got to know best, it was often the companies where I went to their premises or – factories or spent the day with them at a capital markets day. It deepens your understanding and relationship with a business.” — Jeremy Thomas [0:26:29]
“We won’t take a meeting unless we think we can get value from it and we won’t take a meeting that we don’t prepare for.” — Jeremy Thomas [0:27:50]
“If there’s a problem, don’t disguise it, don’t skip over it, don’t pretend it’s not there because it will eventually come out and it will only make it worse in the long run if we don’t have the opportunity to tackle it, there and then.” — Jeremy Thomas [0:31:13]
