Book Reviews

At Peritus we have had a book club since 2017. It has led to great ideas on how to improve our investment and decision-making processes, while also very enjoyable as we learn together.

Below is one of the books that we have enjoyed and appreciated in recent years. We will continue to add new books and we would love to hear any recommendations you may have.

The Intelligent Fund Investor by Joe Wiggins

We have enjoyed reading the Behavioural Investment blog from Joe Wiggins for years.

The book similarly provides thoughtful advice and ideas on manager selection and decision making. We especially enjoyed the chapters Great Stories Make for Awful InvestmentsPast Performance is a Terrible Way to Select a Fund and A Long Time Horizon is a Fund Investor’s Greatest Advantage.

The chapter Incentives of Assets Managers are not Aligned with Their Investors provoked the most discussion in our book club meeting given the difficulty in designing a flawless fee structure.
