Our Investing Literacy Services

Our content is relevant for any investor, but is especially designed to help people who:

  • feel lost, intimidated, confused and overwhelmed by financial markets and the mere thought of having to make decisions regarding investments
  • may have never owned an investment or brokerage account
  • have never traded any financial instruments or are uncomfortable doing so
  • are suspicious of financial advisors, brokers, and economic forecasters

Ultimately, we design our content to:

  • provide objective information about the way financial markets work
  • emphasize what is scientifically known and unknown about effective investing techniques
  • discuss various market players and their motives
  • outline the various risks you face as an investor
  • highlight the temptations and decision making errors that conspire to make you your own worst enemy
  • provide guidance on basic steps you can take to feel more comfortable with the investment choices you make in future, whether you elect to work with an advisor or do it yourself
  • help you understand your role and obligations as a member of a society seeking prosperity

We offer:

  • seminars
  • public speaking sessions
  • game play to enhance experiential learning
  • investment education services to employers and to individuals

Additional Light Brigade Services

In addition to the financial literacy content found here, we provide management consulting services in two areas:

Corporate Credit Risk Assessment Solutions

The Light Brigade provides assistance to a variety of organizations seeking assistance in the identification, quantification, and mitigation of corporate credit risk exposures. Typically, clients require help in deciding which vendor products are best for them, or whether they should attempt to build their own tools instead of licensing them from third party vendors. Our corporate credit risk content is available through the Light Brigade's Credit Solutions Demystified site.

Management Consulting Focusing on Decision Making in the Face of Risk

The Light Brigade assists managers and executives in improving their decision making skills. Capable decision making is considered to be among a leader or manager's most important skill sets, and decisions made in the face of risk or uncertainty tend to be the most difficult, and also most important ones. We provide extensive material on risk, risk taking, risk management, and decision making through our Respect Risk site.

Our expertise is particularly useful for executives struggling with corporate or organizational turnarounds. Please take a look at our podcasts on the subject of corporate turnarounds, as well as our founder's book, "Leveraging People for a Corporate Turnaround."
