An unreasonably long time has elapsed since my last post (23 July 2013). There is no excuse other than a bit of writer’s block. I have looked at the previous posts and have discussed their content with some of my most faithful readers. Their feedback suggests that the posts suffer from four main weaknesses:
too infrequent
too long
too technical
too tame
All of these problems can be corrected. I will still occasionally include a longer or more technical piece but plan to have more short posts on current issues. I also hope that with less tame posts, there will be more comments. I have had almost 20’000 comments; unfortunately, all but a handful were spam.
Rolf Banz spent his career in the investment industry in the US, the UK and, most recently, in Switzerland. To older people, he is known as the "father of the small firm effect". This weblog consists of a series of essays and shorter pieces on a range of issues at the intersection of institutional investment and investment theory. Please see this post for a description of the objectives of the weblog and the About page for further information on the author and the site.
