Abstract
The active versus passive investing debate has been ongoing since the mid-1970s with the introduction of index funds. The performance delivered by active managers does little to settle this debate. We propose an OutDex™ strategy that is designed to closely track market capitalization weighted indexes, while providing investors with factor based excess returns. The strategy incorporates the best of active and passive investment. Furthermore, the OutDex™ strategy employs a quantitative approach to active investing which is scalable and a less expensive form of active investment management. <b>TOPICS:</b>Mutual funds/passive investing/indexing, analysis of individual factors/risk premia, performance measurement
