Who was Bob Haugen?
CEO Bob Haugen, PhD was a pioneer in the field of quantitative investment and the leading proponent of the case that stock markets are inherently inefficient. Toward the end of his 30-year academic career in finance, in the mid-nineties, he published his breakthrough research on the predictive power of an expected return factor model in the Journal of Financial Economics..
Shortly thereafter, having enhanced and expanded his prototype, he opened Haugen Custom Financial Systems. Ever since, clients have capitalized on Haugen's out-of-the-box views and have been consistently rewarded with an investment edge for their clients.
He made guest appearances on CNBC, CNN, ABC, NBC and CBS. You can read Bob's research results, views and innovative ideas in any of his published books, articles, and presentations.
