Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway is doing something outside of its closely followed playbook.
The conglomerate, which typically takes stakes in blue chip American companies, has invested roughly $600 million in two fintech companies focused on emerging markets — Paytm and StoneCo Ltd., The Wall Street Journal reported Monday. Both investments were led by one of Berkshire's two top money managers, Todd Combs.
