In this interview Choueifaty discusses his quest to provide investors with maximum diversification via a systematic quantitative methodology that avoids the concentration risk associated with market cap-weighted indexes.
He explains what TOBAM’s “anti-benchmark” investment strategy means, how its diversification ratio operates and just how unique TOBAM’s methodology is.
