Mary Buffett, the former daughter-in-law of famed investor Warren Buffett, helped launch Jitta.com last week, a platform aimed at retail stock investors in Thailand’s capital. Ms. Buffett brings the Buffett know-how to Bangkok to appeal to investors hoping to become as good as the famous stock picker.
Co-author of the best-selling book “Buffetology,” Mary is putting her name behind the Jitta startup. After testing the platform for herself, Ms. Buffett found it to be an impressive tool for investors.
Mary’s endorsement of Jitta.com is an obvious boost for the Thai-based startup, which is looking to make it big on the international retail investment scene.
Ms. Buffett met with Jitta.com founder Trawut Luangsomboon three years ago, and was one of the initial investors in the project. The start-up launched in the U.S. in 2014.
Jitta uses Warren Buffett’s investment style to simplify retail investment and make it easy for most individuals to get started. Buffett’s style is primarily focused on buying great stocks when they’re undervalued.
When shares drop below Jitta’s “fair price,” investors are encouraged the buy the stock – just as Warren Buffet would do.
Through the adoption of Buffetology’s key elements, this platform helps investors minimize risk while doing their due diligence.
Jitta covers stocks in Singapore, U.S., Thailand, Vietnam and Hong Kong.
