Heartland Funds' Investment Professional - Will Nasgovitz - Spoke to the AIM Program Today


Will Nasgovitz appeared today in Marquette University's Applied Investment Management program where he presented to the students about Heartland Fund's investment process.  

Mr. Nasgovitz is the Portfolio Manager of the Select Value Fund and is a member of the Value Fund's investment team. Prior to joining Heartland, he was a Senior Research Associate with Cambridge Associates, LLC in Washington D.C.

Dr. David Krause, AIM program director said, "It was a privilege to have Will present in class today. As a portfolio manager - and especially during these challenging times - it was an honor to have him visit the AIM program. He has appeared in numerous interviews on Bloomberg TV, Marketwatch, TheStreet.com and CNBC, where he discusses individual stocks, sectors and Heartland’s value investing approach. It was an outstanding opportunity for our students to hear directly from a true investment professional."

"We are very thankful for Will's efforts to help our students understand the intricates of value investing," Dr. Krause added. "We talked about the benefits of Heartland's disciplined process during the afternoon. I know he made a very positive impact on the students and they were very impressed with the 10-point system employed by Will and his colleagues. We talked about employing a similar disciplined approach to our student evaluations. It was truly one of the strongest AIM classroom presentations the students have had the opportunity to hear."
