Human Behavior Drives Financial Loss

The investor’s chief problem — and even his worst enemy — is likely to be himself.

BENJAMIN GRAHAM

Every year, investors lose 4.3 percentage points of investment performance based on behavioral tendencies (Dalbar).

More than 35% of the performance gap of less successful traders in the world’s leading trading floors rests on personality traits alone (Oberlechner).

Bad hiring decisions make banks lose three times the yearly salary of the mismatched employee (Capital One Financial).
