作者简介 · · · · · ·

Victor Haghani has spent four decades actively involved in markets and financial innovation. He started his career in 1984 at Salomon Brothers in bond research. He moved to the trading floor in 1986 and shortly after became a managing director in the bond arbitrage group run by John Meriwether. In 1993, Victor was a cofounding partner of Long-Term Capital Management (LTCM). He established and co-ran its London office. His participation in the failure of LTCM was a life-changing experience that led him to question and revise much of the way he thought about the economy, markets, and investing.

Through a careful study of the academic literature on investing and many thought-provoking discussions with friends, colleagues, and investors of all backgrounds, Victor concluded that savers can and should do much better. He founded Elm Wealth in 2011 to help investors, including his own family, manage their savings in a disciplined, research-based, cost-effective manner and to capture the long-term returns they ought to earn.

In his 2013 TEDx talk, Where Are All the Billionaires and Why Should We Care?, Victor shared his perspective on the synthesis of active and passive investing, which forms the basis of the Dynamic Index Investing ® approach offered by Elm Wealth. Over the years, Victor became fascinated with the challenge of making good decisions on broader questions about wealth and personal finances, including sound spending policies, tax decisions, and retirement choices.

Victor was born in New York City in 1962 and grew up in New York, Pennsylvania, Tehran, and London. As an adult, he has resided in New York City and London and, more recently, has been based in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. Victor graduated from the London School of Economics (LSE) in 1984 with a B.Sc. (economics). He has been a prolific contributor to the academic and practitioner finance literature.

Victor has been involved in a variety of other activities, including research and lecturing at the LSE, where he was a senior research associate in the Financial Markets Group, as well as consulting and board assignments and acting as a “name” in the Lloyd’s of London insurance market. He loves the outdoors and is an avid skier, hiker, and fisherman and enjoys taking long walks with his dog Milo. He has always been fascinated by airplanes, flying model ones as a boy and full-size ones as an adult.
