About this listen
From a former World Bank Executive and renowned investor - a detailed roadmap to adding consistent, sustainable value to globally diversified portfolios.
For many investors, alpha is akin to the Holy Grail. Risk-adjusted returns above benchmarks - alpha - are particularly challenging to achieve even with a sound strategy. Hilda Ochoa-Brillembourg is an expert on alpha. Over the past four decades, she and her team consistently exceeded benchmarks and delivered appreciable value added on their investments.
In Delivering Alpha, she reveals the principles and methods employed in her investment strategies, along with insights drawn from her personal life. She shows how timing, market awareness, price, and relative value to the investor are critical drivers of effective investment decisions. Ochoa-Brillembourg also debunks common investment myths that often trip up both new and experienced investors.
Delivering Alpha provides practical advice on:
- Creating successful decision-making governance to reduce errors and correctly assign responsibilities and incentives
- Dealing thoughtfully and effectively with governance challenges
- Building the right policy portfolio, specifying desired allocations to each asset class
- Structuring asset classes and adding value-oriented or other opportunistic “tilts”
- Measuring and managing risks, avoiding common mistakes, and more
Light on theory and serious on practice, this book is the culmination of a lifetime’s experience from one of the most successful women in finance. It’s essential listening for investors looking to add sustainable value to globally diversified portfolios.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Everybody knows there’s money to be made in stocks. But the reality is only a fraction of investors actually turn profits. If you’re a retail investor with no professional experience…and you don’t have access to all the “insider knowledge” and resources that institutional investors have…you’re more or less gambling your money away.

You will hear a lot about venture capital, debt financing, and much more but most times, private equity is mentioned in passing as one of the ways of raising funds for a business. Nobody talks about how to use private equity to raise money for businesses and nobody talks about how to venture into private equity as an investor. It seems like something that only big monied people can use. But that’s not the case; ordinary people like you and I can invest in private equity firms and make tidy returns on investment.

Story
The finance sector of Western economies is too large and attracts too many of the smartest college graduates. Financialization over the past three decades has created a structure that lacks resilience and supports absurd volumes of trading. The finance sector devotes too little attention to the search for new investment opportunities and the stewardship of existing ones, and far too much to secondary-market dealing in existing assets. Regulation has contributed more to the problems than the solutions.

Story
William Bernstein's commonsense approach to portfolio construction has served investors well during the past turbulent decade - and it's what made The Four Pillars of Investing an instant classic when it was first published nearly a decade ago. This down-to-earth book lays out in easy-to-understand prose the four essential topics that every investor must master: the relationship of risk and reward, the history of the market, the psychology of the investor and the market, and the folly of taking financial advice from investment salespeople.

Too Difficult for Me
I am no expert investor, but I do love to read/listen to business bestsellers. This is the first audible that I've listened to and thought: Wow, I am completely lost.
This might contain some top-notch information and lessons, but it is probably not for the casual investor or bestselling business book enthusiast unless you already understand these investing benchmarks.
This is a highly technical book. I think if you like Ben Graham's Intelligent Investor, then this might be up your alley.
