Melissa Joy sits down with two academic investment researchers, Dr. Tommi Johnsen and Dr. Elisabetta Basilico to discuss academic research for women investors. Drs. Johnsen and Basilico are the authors of Smart(er) Investing which sorts through investing research to find trends and translations for investors. One of their chapters focuses on the dearth of women investors.

 In this discussion we discuss:

  • What percent of portfolio managers are women? HINT: very few
  • What does the research say about the attributes of women investors and their success?
  • How can we change the ratio?
