"Emerging asset markets are primed for an active investment approach as their market size, liquidity and inherent information asymmetry leads to exploitable inefficiencies.
At Van Markl, we give investors access to growing asset classes and add a systematic alpha layer to them - enhancing their absolute and risk-adjusted return profile and helping our clients achieve their portfolio goals."
Recently, Dimensional Fund Advisors wrote critically on "liquid alts." They make some good points, but they also draw some odd conclusions that if applied more generally would not be to their or our liking. Besides discussing their piece, below I also review the general rationale behind holding uncorrelated assets - inparticular, equity "factors" held in a long-short manner.
