Evangelizing The Human Capital Factor with Scott Colson, CIO of Irrational Capital

Thursday Apr 04, 2024
My guest on the show today is Scott Colson, the CIO of Irrational Capital. Scott has partnered with well-known academic and author Dan Ariely to build indexes based on human capital assessment—and partner with asset managers to create ETFs--that are tied to a proprietary metric they call the Human Capital Factor. In this eye-opening discussion, we covered:
- The founding of Irrational Capital and how Scott got involved;
- The various ETFs that Irrational Capital has launched with Harbor Capital;
- What types of companies score highly when it comes to the Human Capital Factor;
- The simplicity of and alpha generating potential of using the Human Capital Factor; and
- The differences between the larger and smaller cap ETFs.
Scott mentioned a number of securities and ETFs during this podcast. I don’t own any of them. For more information about Irrational Capital, please visit: https://www.irrational.capital/
