Tamas Calderwood - The Soft Dictatorship of the Index

Description:

What is an index? What started out as a way of measuring the size of a market became an investment methodology. Is passive investing now so big that ETFs are starting to influence the market? Tamas Calderwood joined me to discuss:


· Financial advice and the new generation of emerging advisers

· Who calculates the indexes we track?

· Tesla and the Observer Effect

· The soft dictatorship of the index

· The role of price discovery in more passive markets
