Dimensional focuses on beating indices, not matching them, by using a systematic, flexible approach that targets higher expected returns. In this presentation, we will look at two research papers that aim to highlight our ability to outperform indexing in both the equity and fixed income spaces.
- Forward rates contain reliable information about the expected returns of global government and corporate bonds.
- Index-tracking funds seek to match an index’s performance. This goal may lead to constraints and implementation costs that hurt returns.
- The presenter will also highlight new and upcoming research from Dimensional.
