The Intersection of Traditional and Behavioral Finance
Behavioral finance is best understood when it is combined with traditional finance principles, rather than replacing them outright. A unique perspective arises from the author's background in quantitative finance, allowing for a deeper appreciation of classical finance theories alongside behavioral insights. Instead of discarding established economic models, the goal is to synthesize them with behavioral understanding to aid in making better financial decisions. This approach embraces the idea that, while human behavior is often irrational, the foundational financial theories still provide valuable guidance.
