Dimensional At A Glance

A belief in the power of markets

Each day, the global financial markets process millions of trades between buyers and sellers.

These trades embed vast amounts of news, expectations, and information into prices.

Dimensional regards a security’s price as the best estimate of actual value—and bases its investment approach on market prices.

A different investment approach

Index fund managers aim to match index returns, accepting portfolio management and trading constraints that can increase costs.

Traditional managers and quants may rely on predictions or backtested simulations to find mispriced securities or time markets.

Dimensional believes investors can have a successful investment experience without having to outguess the market. The firm trusts market prices and applies a scientific, transparent, and processdriven investment approach to pursue higher expected returns

Applying financial science to investing

Dimensional has forged deep working relationships with top academics in finance.

Nobel laureate Eugene Fama, fellow researcher Kenneth French, and other leading academics are directors and consultants to the firm.

A scientific perspective guides the firm’s culture, philosophy, and investment approach.
