Securities | Quantitative Research

Quantitative research is a cornerstone of the Cadiz business, where academic skills and extensive financial services experience combine to generate practical, leading-edge solutions for the portfolio management industry.

Quantitative research is research conducted for the purpose of obtaining empirical evaluations of performance, attitudes or behaviour. Quantitative research is specifically engineered to generate projectable numerical data about specific topics.

Research is targeted at specific areas in the fund management process, including:

  • developing techniques to assist with portfolio construction;
  • developing strategic insights that facilitate decision-making in the fund and risk management arena; and
  • analysing data to formulate strategies for active managers to generate alpha and subsequent outperformance.

The highly qualified professional research team focuses on identifying client-specific research solutions and partnering clients to implement the findings, rather than generating research reports for a broader audience.

Academic expertise enables the team to conduct research with a strong scientific base. By developing formal relationships with leading academic institutions, Cadiz leverages its research output and draws on research of current interest to the investment community far beyond the company complement.
