FYI: The summer after he graduated from Cornell University, Martin Schulz went to lunch with his parents and dropped a bombshell. Instead of going straight to law school, he was joining the U.S. Army Reserve. “I was able to do something very different on the weekends—jump out of a few airplanes and crawl around in the mud—but the experience was ultimately complementary to my other work,” says Schulz, who focused on special operations and served for 31 years before retiring late last year as a colonel.
In the interim, Schulz, 54, graduated from business school and law school, and built a successful investment career. For the past 20 years, he has managed the growth component of the $1.5 billion PNC International Equityfund (ticker: PMIEX), an all-cap portfolio that splits its assets equally between growth and value. Bernie Horn and his team at Polaris Capital Management handle the value side of the fund, which is up an average of 8.4% a year over the past 15 years, better than 80% of its Morningstar peers.
