The foundation of our investment approach is that markets are efficient. Fortress Planning founder Scott Wellens, CFP® spent hundreds of hours and combed through dozens of academic peer reviewed research papers to discover this. Why it matters for you: If you already know that markets are priced fairly, then you can turn your attention to other ways to gain a competitive advantage in the market. That is what we aim to do at Fortress Planning Group.
Dimensional Fund Advisors (DFA) is a leader in developing asset class portfolios for institutional investors and independent investment advisors.
