What We Do
Investment management is Dodge & Cox’s only business. We are focused on providing U.S., global, international, and emerging markets equity; fixed income; and balanced account management.
Strategies:
Equity — The philosophy guiding the management of our equity portfolios is built on traditional principles: we maintain a long-term focus, conduct our own research, and employ a rigorous price discipline. Our approach is research-intensive; decisions are based on individual company analysis by our team of investment professionals.
Fixed Income — Dodge & Cox’s philosophy is to construct and manage a high average quality portfolio of securities that are selected through bottom-up, fundamental analysis. We believe that by combining fundamental research with a long-term investment horizon it is possible to uncover and act upon inefficiencies in the valuation of market sectors and individual securities.
Balanced — Our objective in managing balanced accounts is to provide regular income, conservation of principal, and an opportunity for long-term growth of principal and income. Our strategy is to invest in a diversified portfolio of stocks and fixed income securities.
Offerings:
Dodge & Cox Funds — Dodge & Cox offers U.S. based investors a simple, low-cost way to own a portfolio of stocks and/or fixed income securities.
Private Client Accounts — The private client group serves high net worth individual investors, family offices, and non-profit organizations across the United States through separately managed accounts.
Institutional Separate Accounts — A client's investment objectives, asset allocation, and portfolio holdings are reviewed with an experienced portfolio manager and client service associate.
