## Description

Behavioural investing seeks to bridge the gap between psychology and investing. All too many investors are unaware of the mental pitfalls that await them. Even once we are aware of our biases, we must recognise that knowledge does not equal behaviour. The solution lies is designing and adopting an investment process that is at least partially robust to behavioural decision-making errors. Behavioural Investing: A Practitioner’s Guide to Applying Behavioural Finance explores the biases we face, the way in which they show up in the investment process, and urges readers to adopt an empirically based sceptical approach to investing. This book is unique in combining insights from the field of applied psychology with a through understanding of the investment problem. The content is practitioner focused throughout and will be essential reading for any investment professional looking to improve their investing behaviour to maximise returns. Key features include: The only book to cover the applications of behavioural finance An executive summary for every chapter with key points highlighted at the chapter start Information on the key behavioural biases of professional investors, including The seven sins of fund management, Investment myth busting, and The Tao of investing Practical examples showing how using a psychologically inspired model can improve on standard, common practice valuation tools Written by an internationally renowned expert in the field of behavioural finance

Review: Montier really gives his industry a hard time - James Montier's book is in fact a collection of articles and therefore has some redundancies by repeating the same things again and again. But...he really takes away many illusions about analysts, company meetings, portfolio management and every one's capabilities in beating the market. In short, he says that predicting the future is not possible and that we are very bad in forecasting, even more when we are "professionals", because of how our brain works. He shows how to at least try to avoid common biases and focusing on the facts (on the past). It is easy to read and very entertaining, nevertheless with a factual approach. But be warned: as a PM you will feel the urge to stop taking calls from sales people ;-)
Review: valuable insights, in a frustrating format - I think the criticisms found in the previous reviews are valid. The book is indeed just a collection of periodic notes that were sent to clients of J. Montier's employer, Dresdner Kleinwort. And this format is at times frustrating, since occasionally these notes reference previous ones, which the reader of the book has either no access to, or which are included on later pages of the book. At other times, the format leads to redundancies, as the same point will be reiterated in different client notes. But I could not get myself to take more than one star off, because the insights are so important, and the research presented to bolster them is very compelling. This is true both in terms of the psychological research underpinning the precepts of behavioural investing, and of the empirical research that shows the practical impact on asset prices. I would add to the criticisms that this book seems comparatively expensive, but I would say that in this case, you get what you pay for.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Bible of behavioural investing
*by A***R on June 4, 2011*

This is in my top 3 books, its a throughly orginial and well thoughtout book which outlines all the critical behavioural bias's that they we face as investors and offers some practical solutions for overcoming them. I believe that in order to outperform in today markets you need to combine technicals, fundamentals, an understanding of crowd pyschology and alos control your individual bias's.
