Dimensional Fund Advisors

Most advances in financial economics over the past fifty years have come from academic research at places like the University of Chicago and the University of Rochester. Nearly twenty years ago, Professional Financial closely aligned with Dimensional Fund Advisors. What sets Dimensional apart is how closely they work with financial economists to rigorously interpret, test, and apply scientific research that applies to capital markets.

Almost uniquely, the research team at Dimensional has bridged the gap between published science and the practical world, devising profitable solutions relevant for successful investing strategies.
