# V. Prem Watsa V. Prem Watsa is an Indian-Canadian billionaire businessman and the founder, chairman, and chief executive officer of Fairfax Financial Holdings Limited, one of the world's largest property and casualty insurance and reinsurance companies. Born in Hyderabad, India in 1950, Watsa earned a degree in chemical engineering from the Indian Institute of Technology Madras before immigrating to Canada with $8 in his pocket. He supported himself through an MBA at the Richard Ivey School of Business at the University of Western Ontario by selling furnaces and air conditioners door-to-door. After working as an investment analyst at Confederation Life Insurance, where he studied Benjamin Graham's value investing principles under the mentorship of John Watson, Watsa co-founded Hamblin Watsa Investment Counsel in 1984. In 1985, he organized a group of investors to acquire Markel Financial, a small Canadian trucking insurance company, which he transformed into Fairfax Financial Holdings. Under Watsa's leadership, Fairfax Financial Holdings evolved into a global powerhouse operating in more than 100 countries with over $5 billion in annual premiums. Watsa has earned a reputation as a value investor often compared to Warren Buffett, having made prescient predictions about major market events including the 1987 crash, Japan's economic collapse in the 1990s, and the 2008 financial crisis. Despite his substantial wealth and influence, Watsa has remained notably private and publicity-averse throughout his career, only beginning to hold public investor conference calls in 2001. In December 2025, Watsa and Fairfax-controlled entities significantly increased their stake in Under Armour, Inc., purchasing approximately 30.45 million Class A shares and 7.78 million Class C shares between December 22 and December 29, 2025. These purchases resulted in Fairfax entities holding beneficial ownership of 30.45 million Class A shares, representing 16.1% of that share class. Watsa serves as a director of Under Armour and is committed to long-term value investing principles. Throughout his career, he has emphasized that business success must be built on honesty and integrity, and has directed that one to two percent of Fairfax's pre-tax profits be reinvested into the communities where the company operates.
