Aus dem Klappentext

As measured by assets under management (AUM), the majority of equity investing is driven by fundamentals. Portfolio managers identify investment opportunities and translate them into portfolios. Over the past 30 years, the industry has matured and become more sophisticated. One of the most crucial concepts in this maturation process has been factor modeling.

In Advanced Portfolio Management: A Quant's Guide for Fundamental Investors, renowned risk and finance expert Giuseppe Paleologo delivers an insightful and practical guide to turning your investment ideas and knowledge into profitable trades. The author introduces you to a framework for portfolio construction and risk management that is both theoretically grounded and market-tested by successful portfolio managers.

In this book, you'll find simple and effective rules of thumb as well as sophisticated techniques that combine to help you overcome the challenges every investor faces as their portfolio grows in size and complexity. Whether you're trying to separate stock-specific return drivers from the investment environment's return drivers or measuring and decomposing risk, Advanced Portfolio Management shows you how to use the flexible framework of factor modeling for risk quantification, portfolio analysis, and portfolio construction.

Containing a quantitative appendix as well as more advanced material that will benefit quantitative researchers who are members of fundamental teams, this book will benefit you regardless of whether you have access to risk models or an advanced mathematical background.

Perfect for buy-side investors and analysts, Advanced Portfolio Management: A Quant's Guide for Fundamental Investors is also an indispensable resource for portfolio managers seeking a powerful way for fundamental stock pickers to get an investment edge and beat the market on a regular basis.
