Chris Faber, senior vice president and portfolio manager, was recently featured in a Fortune Magazine article on the differences between alpha and beta investing and what investors should know about the two concepts.
In the article, Faber explains how beta can be used to assess whether an investment is a good fit for an investor’s risk tolerance, since often investors focus on volatility as the only measure of systemic risk. He also notes the importance of working with investment professionals with experience in alpha and beta investing before trying to pursue strategies focused on those factors.
