David Herro Named Morningstar's International Stock Fund Manager of the Decade

CHICAGO, Jan. 13 /PRNewswire/ -- We are pleased to announce that David Herro has been named Morningstar's International Stock Fund Manager of the Decade.  

David serves as the Chief Investment Officer of International Equities and portfolio manager for The Oakmark International Fund, The Oakmark International Small Cap Fund, and The Oakmark Global Select Fund.  He joined Harris Associates, adviser to The Oakmark Funds, in 1992.  

The Fund Manager of the Decade award, which is a new award from Morningstar, recognizes fund managers who have achieved superior risk-adjusted results over the past 10 years and have an established record of serving shareholders well. While the awards focus on performance over the past decade, Morningstar takes into consideration other factors, including the fund manager's strategy, approach to risk, size of the fund, and stewardship. Both individual fund managers and management teams are eligible, and being a previous winner of the Morningstar Fund Manager of the Year award isn't a prerequisite. Morningstar's fund analysts select the Fund Manager of the Decade award winners based on Morningstar's proprietary research and in-depth evaluation.

The Oakmark investment philosophy is centered on the belief that superior, long-term results are achieved through investing as owners in quality companies that can be purchased at a significant discount to their true economic value.  The Oakmark International Fund seeks capital appreciation by investing in larger capitalization companies located outside of the U.S.  The Oakmark International Small Cap Fund seeks capital appreciation by investing in small capitalization companies located outside of the U.S.  The Oakmark Global Select Fund seeks capital appreciation by investing in a concentrated portfolio of mid and large capitalization companies from around the world.
