About Dimensional Fund Advisors

Dimensional has been implementing the great ideas in financial science since 1981. Our firm is driven by an evidence-based approach, Nobel Prize-winning insights, and decades of expertise pursuing outperformance over benchmarks and peers while maintaining low costs and diversification.

Dimensional’s founders launched some of the first index funds in the 1970s. In the 1980s they broke new ground pioneering factor investing, starting the firm with the belief that investors could do better than indexing through a research-backed approach using up-to-date information on what can improve returns. We believe this can lead to better outcomes for investors than active stock-picking or passive indexing.

Our commitment to research, rigor, and the pursuit of truth has helped transform the industry toward more transparent, data-driven solutions. That commitment continues to propel Dimensional forward today.

Dimensional is headquartered in Austin, Texas, and has more than 1,500 employees in offices around the world. The firm offers a full suite of regional and global equity and fixed income solutions. As of September 30, 2025, Dimensional and its affiliates managed $915 billion for investors worldwide.
