HR Associate ( Maternity Cover ) recruitment

Dimensional is an independently-owned company whose primary business is investment management. This gives the firm flexibility to address clients’ investment needs in creative and powerful ways. Dimensional was founded in 1981 on a set of ideas that revolutionised financial economics: it is possible to add value without trying to pick stocks or bonds or outguess the market. In markets where securities are freely traded, their prices are almost always fairly valued which provides an opportunity for investors to benefit from the natural relationship that exists between risk and return. By systematically focusing on the dimensions of risk that are worth taking—and avoiding those that are not—Dimensional’s strategies are designed to deliver higher expected returns. Implementation is critical. Keeping costs low will increase net returns. Value can be added through the use of cutting-edge portfolio management and trading techniques.
