Portfolio Design: A Modern Approach to Asset Allocation. 2011. By Richard Marston. John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 337 pages, $60.00.

摘要

Richard Marston certainly has the credentials to author a book on portfolio design. Currently the academic director of the Private Wealth Management Program at the Whar-ton School of the University of Pennsylvania, he has taught in five countries, is the recipient of both a Rhodes Scholarship and a Fulbright Fellowship, and—perhaps most relevantly—has taught asset allocation to more than 5,000 financial advisers as a faculty member in the Certified Investment Management Analyst program. Marston has accomplished what many investment academics find difficult—namely, produced a book that is truly practical and "hands-on" for both financial advisers and investors.
