Berkshire Hathaway's Class B shares (BRKB) were first offered to the public on January 21, 1996. The creation of Class B shares allowed more investors to buy into the company at a lower price point compared to Class A shares (BRKA). This move was part of Warren Buffett's strategy to make Berkshire Hathaway more accessible to a wider range of investors.
