Publisher's summary

Investing Amid Low Expected Returns provides an evidence-based blueprint for successful investing when decades of market tailwinds are turning into headwinds.

For a generation, falling yields and soaring asset prices have boosted realized returns. However, this past windfall leaves retirement savers and investors now facing the prospect of record-low future expected returns. Emphasizing this pressing challenge, the book highlights the role that timeless investment practices—discipline, humility, and patience—will play in enabling investment success. It then assesses current investor practices and the body of empirical evidence to illuminate the building blocks for improving long-run returns in today's environment and beyond. It concludes by reviewing how to put them together through effective portfolio construction, risk management, and cost control practices.

In this book, listeners will also find: the common investor responses so far to the low expected return challenge; extensive empirical evidence on the critical ingredients of an effective portfolio: major asset class premia, illiquidity premia, style premia, and alpha; discussions of the pros and cons of illiquid investments, factor investing, ESG investing, risk mitigation strategies, and market timing; and coverage of the whole top-down investment process.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Great book from the author of Expected Returns

It’s a great supplement to the physical book.

If you loved Expected Returns - this one is obviously for you. As always a good read, great insights and a great review of the state of art in research.

If you have no knowledge of modern portfolio theory - this book is not for you. It is written for industry professionals and academics.

There's no pdf with charts and figures!

The content is great but the audio book is useless because it lacks a pdf containing all the charts and figures! Seems like a ridiculous oversight by the audio book publisher
