## Resource

New study reveals that CEOs from private schools are perceived as safer bets, leading to lower stock volatility, but theres no evidence they perform better. Investors seem to prioritize perceived competence over actual performance, especially in uncertain markets. In the UK, only a third of FTSE 100 CEOs attended state schools, highlighting the influence of background on market perceptions.
