About BestFolio
Built by investors, for investors
BestFolio was built by a small team of engineers and investors who got tired of spreadsheets.
We come from quantitative finance, software engineering, and data science backgrounds — with advanced degrees from European and American universities and over 15 years of hands-on investing experience across US and EU markets.
What started as a weekend project to automate our own portfolio rebalancing grew into something bigger. After months of backtesting, validating, and stress-testing 43+ strategies across 56+ variants against 30+ years of market data, we realized other self-directed investors could benefit from the same tools.
We don’t sell signals. We don’t make predictions. We aggregate published, peer-reviewed strategies and give you the infrastructure to follow them systematically — with full transparency on methodology, data sources, and limitations.
BestFolio is self-funded, independent, and built with one goal: help disciplined investors stop guessing and start following the data.
Standing on the shoulders of giants
Every strategy on BestFolio is rooted in decades of published research — from Nobel laureates to pioneering practitioners.
We don’t invent strategies. We faithfully implement them, validate them against 30+ years of real market data, and make them accessible. Every source paper and methodology is documented in our Research Library.
