The H-Factor System:
New Age Alpha’s portfolio tool for identifying and avoiding a hidden risk that can erode returns
Asset management innovator New Age Alpha has developed an actuarial-based approach to mitigate human behavior’s impact on stock prices. New Age Alpha’s H-Factor methodology drives stock selection, using technology, actuarial science and 20 years’ research to score and seek avoidance of human behavior risk that it believes causes stocks to be mispriced.
The BNP Paribas Global H-Factor Index employs the New Age Alpha H-Factor system for the selection of the 225 global stocks that form the equity portion of the index.
WHAT IS THE H-FACTOR?
Human behavior is a risk that comes from humans interpreting vague or ambiguous information in a systematically incorrect way.
