It’s counter-intuitive but, the less you pay, the more you get back. The new documentary from Sensible Investing TV sets out to de-bunk the notion that, when it comes to investing, you get what you pay for. Robin Powell’s new documentary – to be shown in ten short weekly instalments, is a must-view for anyone who takes long term investing seriously. Most of what we see and hear about how to invest comes from either the fund industry or the financial media – both of which have their own agendas. This landmark documentary is an attempt to redress the balance. Nine months in the making, How to Win the Loser’s Game aims to provide ordinary investors with the information they need to achieve their investment goals. It explores the relative merits of active and passive investing, as well as so-called smart beta – a middle way approach that is gaining in popularity. Among the contributors are some of the biggest names and brightest minds in the investing world, from Vanguard founder John Bogle to MoneyWeek editor Merryn Somerset Webb,authors Charles Ellis and Larry Swedroe and Nobel Prize-winning economists Eugene Fama and William Sharpe.
