    The author gives a property that characterizes the Möbius transformations among all analytic univalent functions \(f\) defined in a planar domain \(D\) such that \(f(z)\neq 0\) for all \(z\in D\). The property involves cross-ratios and the Newton derivative (a quantity that appears in the first iteration in Newton's method).
