Book Synopsis 21st Century Investing by : William Burckart
Download or read book 21st Century Investing written by William Burckart and published by Berrett-Koehler Publishers. This book was released on 2021-04-13 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How institutions and individuals can address complex social, financial, and environmental problems on a systemic level—and invest in a more secure future. Investment today has evolved from the basic, conventional approach of the past. Investors have come to recognize the importance of sustainable investment and are more frequently considering environmental and social factors in their decisions. Yet the complexity of the times forces us to recognize and transition to a third stage of investment practice: system-level investing. In this paradigm-shifting book, William Burckart and Steve Lydenberg show how system-level investors support and enhance the health and stability of the social, financial, and environmental systems on which they depend for long-term returns. They preserve and strengthen these fundamental systems while still generating competitive or otherwise acceptable performance. This book is for those investors who believe in that transition. They may be institutions, large or small, concerned about the long-term stability of the environment and society. They may be individual investors who want their children and grandchildren to inherit a just and sustainable world. Whoever they may be, Burckart and Lydenberg show them the what, why, and how of system-level investment in this book: what it means to manage system-level risks and rewards, why it is imperative to do so now, and how to integrate this new way of thinking into their current practice. “Burckart and Lydenberg are the Wayne Gretzkys of investing: Showing us not where investing is, but where it’s going.” —Jon Lukomnik, Managing Partner, Sinclair Capital; Senior Fellow, High Meadows Institute

Book Synopsis Moving Beyond Modern Portfolio Theory by : Jon Lukomnik
Download or read book Moving Beyond Modern Portfolio Theory written by Jon Lukomnik and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-04-29 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Moving Beyond Modern Portfolio Theory: Investing That Matters tells the story of how Modern Portfolio Theory (MPT) revolutionized the investing world and the real economy, but is now showing its age. MPT has no mechanism to understand its impacts on the environmental, social and financial systems, nor any tools for investors to mitigate the havoc that systemic risks can wreck on their portfolios. It’s time for MPT to evolve. The authors propose a new imperative to improve finance’s ability to fulfil its twin main purposes: providing adequate returns to individuals and directing capital to where it is needed in the economy. They show how some of the largest investors in the world focus not on picking stocks, but on mitigating systemic risks, such as climate change and a lack of gender diversity, so as to improve the risk/return of the market as a whole, despite current theory saying that should be impossible. "Moving beyond MPT" recognizes the complex relations between investing and the systems on which capital markets rely, "Investing that matters" embraces MPT’s focus on diversification and risk adjusted return, but understands them in the context of the real economy and the total return needs of investors. Whether an investor, an MBA student, a Finance Professor or a sustainability professional, Moving Beyond Modern Portfolio Theory: Investing That Matters is thought-provoking and relevant. Its bold critique shows how the real world already is moving beyond investing orthodoxy.
Book Synopsis Capital in the Twenty-First Century by : Thomas Piketty
Download or read book Capital in the Twenty-First Century written by Thomas Piketty and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2017-08-14 with total page 817 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What are the grand dynamics that drive the accumulation and distribution of capital? Questions about the long-term evolution of inequality, the concentration of wealth, and the prospects for economic growth lie at the heart of political economy. But satisfactory answers have been hard to find for lack of adequate data and clear guiding theories. In this work the author analyzes a unique collection of data from twenty countries, ranging as far back as the eighteenth century, to uncover key economic and social patterns. His findings transform debate and set the agenda for the next generation of thought about wealth and inequality. He shows that modern economic growth and the diffusion of knowledge have allowed us to avoid inequalities on the apocalyptic scale predicted by Karl Marx. But we have not modified the deep structures of capital and inequality as much as we thought in the optimistic decades following World War II. The main driver of inequality--the tendency of returns on capital to exceed the rate of economic growth--today threatens to generate extreme inequalities that stir discontent and undermine democratic values if political action is not taken. But economic trends are not acts of God. Political action has curbed dangerous inequalities in the past, the author says, and may do so again. This original work reorients our understanding of economic history and confronts us with sobering lessons for today.

Book Synopsis The Best of Both Worlds by : Ian Sender
Download or read book The Best of Both Worlds written by Ian Sender and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-05-19 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The stock market is a device for transferring money from the impatient to the patient." Warren Buffett Mr Buffett's strategy of patience has proven to be the most astounding in history. He has earned 20.8% a year compounded over 50 years including recessions and wars. He does NOT trade or speculate. He holds companies for a long time. Buffett has proved the market is NOT efficient and stock-picking can work for a few. Buffett is the genius who found a way to beat the market. It is almost impossible for most humans. The average investor earned just 3.79% while the stock market earned 11.06% over the last 30 years. DALBAR QAIB Most jump from one "popular" security to another just in time for it to go down. So they earn just 3.79%; paying more for less. Buffett has been patient for over 60 years: his $6,000 from paper routes has grown to $72 billions. You can become wealthy by choosing the best investment strategy in the 21st century: The Hub and Spoke strategy. Use the best of both worlds: market index and Buffett's stock. I have managed sales departments in securities firms. I know how firms make money from your money. I've tried most strategies myself. Jim O'shaughnessy has tested many of them. There are almost as many "investing" strategies as people who work on Wall Street. There are institutional and retail investors who put up the money and take all the risks. And there are salespeople who take profits from the investors. You have your choice but there are three considerations first: trust yourself or others, your futures will change, wealth-building takes time.
