Episode Description
In this episode of The Scientiam Show, we sit down with Bhanu Singh, CEO of Dimensional Fund Advisors Australia and Senior Investment Director. Bhanu shares his journey from studying accounting in the US, to unexpectedly landing at Dimensional, to eventually leading the firm in Australia and New Zealand.
We dive into what sets Dimensional apart— from its evidence-based investment philosophy to its culture of long-term thinking. Dr. Katherine Hunt (fresh from the surf!) also shares insights into Dimensional’s ethical commitment to avoiding commissions and resisting the pull of short-term trends. Bhanu reflects on the challenges and rewards of carrying this culture across a global business, highlighting why staying true to principles matters in an industry so often swayed by fads.
Whether you’re an investor, adviser, or simply curious about how one of theworld’s leading asset managers thinks, this episode is packed with insights you won’t want to miss.
