Quant Researcher

The Quant team is responsible for application of quantitative techniques and technology in investment, as well as conducting in-depth quantitative investment research.

Investment Technology:

This focuses on the creation of cutting-edge investment tools and innovative techniques to support the investment process and augment the information processing, analytical and decision-making abilities of the investment team. Latest developments from academic and commercial research are incorporated to ensure that our suite of tools remains state-of-the-art.

Risk:

This focuses on continued enhancement of our quantitative risk analysis techniques and tools. The analysts develop our understanding of the investment exposures in the investment portfolios and build frameworks for analysing these exposures systematically. Communicating the investment risks to the investment team and portfolio managers in an effective manner is also key.

Investment Research:

This focuses on the quantitative analysis of investment opportunities. The scope includes development of quantitative valuation models, screening for investment ideas, detailed analysis of the risk and return of investment themes and individual stocks, as well as the management of the integrity and quality of our proprietary investment database.

Strong numeric and analytical skills demonstrated by a first-class degree and a PhD in a quantitative discipline are a requirement for these teams. Computer programming and-or database experience are also essential.
