A great checklist for assessing the capital allocation skills of management.

I would guess that many people don't read through a proxy (DEF 14A) before investing.

Highly recommend reading the full paper from @mjmauboussin - https://plus.credit-suisse.com/rpc4/ravDocView?docid=V6ctdQ1AF-WElY95

After paying @HomeLoansByHDFC a processing fee just earlier this year to adjust the rate on a “floating” rate loan, they say it’ll take another fee to move it down by a few bps.

So @HomeLoansByHDFC Rate increases happen automatically but any rate decreases involve in-person visits to branch with random documents with revenue stamp affixed. Can not wait to write obituaries for such businesses.
