How Harper works

The checks Harper uses before making or changing a virtual investment

  1. 1

    Reliable evidence

    Important claims must be supported by trustworthy sources.

  2. 2

    Enough potential upside

    The possible gain must justify the planned downside after estimated costs.

  3. 3

    Clear risk limit

    Every investment needs a price and condition that would prove the idea wrong.

  4. 4

    Current market data

    Harper will not act on an old or mismatched price.

  5. 5

    Portfolio fit

    A new investment must stay within concentration and total-risk limits.

  6. 6

    Currency awareness

    Expected returns must still make sense after currency risk and conversion costs.
