"Smart Portfolios is a sophisticated but not overly technical treatment of a topic that every investor has to come to grips with. As such, it is a recommended read." Brenda Jubin, Investing.com
"In Finance (like many other subjects) there is a large amount of research that is smart but impractical and an equally large amount of popular literature that is practical but dumb. This book is in that rare category of smart and practical – it is also an entertaining read in its own right.” Francis Breedon, Professor of Finance Queen Mary, University of London and former head of currency strategy at a major investment bank
"Smart Portfolios introduces plenty of concepts that anyone should follow in thinking about how to structure their investment dollars… Smart Portfolios makes for a valuable read, because it always brings you back to the practical macro-level questions (what to invest in, how much to invest, what changes to make) instead of going so far down the rabbit hole that you forget why various formulas or charts are relevant. Carver’s pedigree and current status make him the right kind of author for this type of book.” Adam Justko, Proud Money
Two years after the excellent Systematic Trading, Rob has done it again. Smart Portfolios offer a unique insight into how a finance professional approaches portfolio construction and investment. This books clears up many misconceptions about investing and offers rational methods and tools for taking care of your hard earned money. Andreas Clenow, CIO Acies Asset Management, Zurich
