Disclaimers (Giverny Capital):

Returns Rochon Global Portfolio

The Rochon Global portfolio is a private group of personal and family accounts managed by François Rochon, the president of Giverny Capital Inc. (GCI). The Rochon Global portfolio has existed since 1993, that is seven years before the registration of GCI as portfolio manager with the AMF. Although the Rochon Global portfolio serves as a model for GCI’s clients, clients’ portfolio returns can vary. The Rochon Global portfolio returns indicated include trading commissions and dividends but do not include management fees. Portfolio returns of the Rochon Global portfolio have been generated in a different environment than GCI’s clients and this environment is considered controlled. For example, cash deposits and withdrawals can increase the returns of the Rochon Global portfolio. Thus, the portfolio returns of the Rochon Global portfolio are often higher than the returns realized by clients of GCI.  Past performance is no guarantee of future results.
