Active Investment Management: Finding and Harnessing Investment Skill (The Wiley Finance Series)

The investment management industry faces a number of well-publicised problems and difficulties. Charles Jackson shows how these all relate to the same underlying problem: that investors find investment skill very hard both to find and to put to work in a way that profits them.
