The Meb Faber Show: “Laurens Swinkels, Robeco – The Global Market Portfolio and Realistic Expected Returns”
“Laurens Swinkels, Robeco – The Global Market Portfolio and Realistic Expected Returns”
Today’s guest is Laurens Swinkels, Robeco’s Head of Quant Strategy and one of my favorite authors.
In today’s episode, we walk through some of Laurens’ favorite research. We begin with the global market portfolio, how it’s evolved over time and where crypto fits in today. Then we talk about his research on factor performance dating back to the 19th century.
We also cover his framework for determining expected returns for all major asset classes and why he and his team decided to include climate change in that analysis for the first time this year.
Be sure to stick around until the end when we touch on sin stocks, ESG, and even the tokenization of real estate and other assets.
