Dimensional Fund Advisors

Since 1981*, Dimensional has sought to provide better investment outcomes for clients through a transparent, rules-based approach that combines the knowledge gained from rigorous theoretical and empirical research with thoughtful and effective implementation. Four decades of practical experience have enabled Dimensional to gain insights about operating in competitive markets, and to hone our ability to manage the tradeoffs that we believe matter for performance.

Dimensional has over 1,400 employees across our 14 global offices and manages €659bn of client assets across equity, fixed income and other asset classes (figures as at 31 March 2022). Owned primarily by current and former employees and headquartered in Austin, Texas, Dimensional maintains investment offices in Santa Monica, Charlotte, London, Dublin, Sydney, Singapore, and Tokyo, in addition to client service offices in Vancouver, Toronto, Amsterdam, Berlin, Melbourne, and Hong Kong.
