‘The word ‘Texas’ means friend, and all are welcome!’ Barrow Hanley on its long-term value focus

Patricia Barron and Mark Giambrone talk about Texas, when IR-only meetings work and how often the investment management firm likes to meet before it buys in.

As companies eye Texas – and Dallas in particular – as a roadshow destination, the Lone Star State has been pushing forward its business-friendly appeal with the new Texas Stock Exchange poised to begin trading next year, listings already in place on NYSE Texas and new legislation.

Patricia Barron, executive director, chief operating officer and head of risk at Barrow Hanley, and Mark Giambrone, the investment management firm’s executive director, head of US equities and portfolio manager, share thoughts and insights with IR Impact about why value serves the firm so well, what companies should do when considering a Dallas roadshow and why Barrow Hanley companies will find the firm ‘commitment to active engagement’.

With a combined 72 years of industry experience, Barron and Giambrone are also long-term members of the Barrow Hanley team, having joined the firm in 2000 and 1999 respectively.
