All About Factors & Smart Beta /slideshow/all-about-factors-smart-beta/73676991 allaboutfactorssmartbeta-170327014752
In All About Factors, we cover the basics of what factors are, where we expect them to derive their excess returns from, their advantages and disadvantages and if there is indeed any merit to this approach or if it just another Wall Street marketing gimmick. After covering the commonly accepted factors basics, we discuss expectations for factor investing, the theory as to why short-term pain must be present for long-term return, and some key considerations in moving from the academic research to creating investible portfolios. Also explored is the current on-going debate between industry titans Rob Arnott (Research Affiliates) and Cliff Asness (AQR) as to the efficacy of using valuation-based spreads to time factor exposures. Lastly, we look at some different methods that a retail investor can utilize smart-beta investing, by highlighting some of the current industry techniques for diversifying factor exposures and building a multi-factor portfolio. ]]>
