Our History

We have dedicated significant resources to the field of behavioural finance to better understand financial tools and how investors use them. Our research has led us to develop practical applications of behavioural finance in our portfolio management process.

Our research has been showcased in numerous financial journals, including the Financial Analysts Journal and The Journal of Portfolio Management. In 1984, Ken began writing Forbes’ “Portfolio Strategy” column, which ran monthly until 12/31/2016—making Ken the longest continuously running columnist in the magazine’s history.
