Episode description as stored
This is Zack Fuss. Today, we are breaking down Exor. The origins of Exor date back to the end of the 19th century when Giovanni Agnelli founded the Auto Company Fiat. Over the company's 100-year-old history, a lot has changed. While some of the core assets remain the same today, Exor serves as an investment holding company. Its largest and most notable assets include Ferrari, CNH, Stellantis, Philips, and a number of other notable household-name companies.  I am joined by Krishna Mohanraj, a portfolio manager of the International Strategy at Diamond Hill. Today, Exor is led by John Elkann, the grandson of the late Giovanni Agnelli. Elkan was named heir of his grandfather at the age of 21, and has fostered and reshaped the business to what it is today. Please enjoy this Breakdown of Exor.
