Nobody can establish who first used the phrase 'evidence-based investing', and no regulator defines it. Robin Powell, who was given the name by Larry Swedroe in 2015 and is sometimes wrongly credited with coining it, sets out what it actually means: four tests of what counts as evidence, borrowed from a medical parallel that hit the same crisis twelve years ago. Including where he goes further than a global tracker, and why he holds that position less firmly than he used to.
Moving beyond traditional passive investing requires systematic strategies to minimise hidden costs that can erode returns by hundreds of basis points. This guide examines advanced fund selection, strategic trading, and tax-efficient approaches. We explore how Timeline Portfolios demonstrates that systematic strategies justify advisory fees through superior execution, whether pursuing DIY factor investing or accessing providers like DFA.
