Expected returns of major asset classes, investment strategies, and the effects of underlying risk factors such as growth, inflation, liquidity, and different risk perspectives, are also explained. Judging expected returns requires balancing historical returns with both theoretical considerations and current market conditions.
Expected Returns provides extensive empirical evidence, surveys of risk-based and behavioral theories, and practical insights. Read more Read less. Add all three to Cart Add all three to List.

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later. Ilmanen hits a home run with his book. I have owned it for a year now, and I still find myself going back to it every now and then. It gives a great overview on pretty much any topic related to the financial markets, as a combination of his own thoughts and the latest research. Even on topics where I consider myself "being an expert", I find it useful to remind oneself of the "basics" concerning that area through Ilmanen's thoughts.
This book is a phenomenal tour-de-force of academic research into the financial markets over the last several decades. It provides a highly readable, well researched, concise survey of the field.
Beyond this, the author gives credence to academia by providing his own independent analysis to verify the existence of risk premia along the way. His methodology, data sources, and citations are heavily documented in the back of the book so you are free to reproduce his results yourself. Beyond this, he provides a few chapters that tie together the various conclusions made through the text in a way that is actionable for investors. That said, another book recently published, "Jackass Investing", provides a more down-to-earth analysis of the risk premia laid out in Expected Returns, and also includes more specifics on how to harvest these premia.
For those who have a hard time parsing this book and it's copious amount of analysis, and just want to "cut to the chase", Jackass Investing might be a suitable alternative if you are willing to make a few leaps of faith on the author's conclusions. One of the best investment books I've ever read.
Asness jokingly says that he briefly considered having Ilmanen killed instead of writing the foreword but decided that he would instead have to work another 20 years so Illmanen would have something to write about in the next book. It's hard to believe, so why? The reader will be taken up to speed on practically everything that has happened within academic finance and quantative asset management during the last 30 years. Because there are no free things. Historical averages and forwardlooking.
Probably too much info for beginners but for investors with experience, this book will bring a lot of ideas and concepts together. Even if you are a fundamental investors, this book will help you. Buy and read this book. It's a great investment. I have never written an Amazon review before but feel compelled to congratulate the author on such an excellent, comprehensive review of investment research. It is a valuable desk reference. I am an academic but I think practitioners will appreciate this book as well.
I was pleasantly surprised at the the number of intelligent takeaways I garnered from this book. Anyone searching for alpha in the securities markets would most likely find nuggets that can be implemented after reading. Logically breaking down the source of vig from a myriad of trading strategies to the root cause is something I have not seen in a book before.
Kindle Edition Verified Purchase. Antti has delivered a one stop shop of any one wanting to understand the expected returns to an amazingly wide range of assets and strategies. Whilst Antti and I are often on opposite sides of the debate over approaches like risk parity, I can't recommend his book highly enough. It should be required reading for all those interested in investing. Written more for a professional strategist. One person found this helpful 2 people found this helpful. Very technical but good information. Terms like supply-demand effects, market frictions, political cycle, taxes, regulation, pension liabilities and institutional governance are mentioned but there is no systematic account of their significance for "expected returns".
Ilmanen's approach could look eclectic but he does not hide his preferences, especially for value versus growth , yield, risk factor diversification versus traditional asset class allocation , "prudent leverage", and "view-based" active management, conscious of costs.
Save ammunition in good times and gradually take advantage of episodes when liquidity and other premia widen out, while recognising that nobody can be a perfect market-timer," page In the end, that sounds not so different from what juniors heard from their seasoned investment colleagues some time ago, well before the days of modern finance.
