MARKETING COMMUNICATION FOR PROFESSIONAL INVESTORS ONLY
In challenging markets where downside risks are on the rise and beta is lower, we believe that a focus on defensive, quality equities can be a source of alpha for clients.
We also believe that the quantitative approach, enhanced by human oversight and effective risk management, can provide the discipline and efficiency required to identify quality companies at the right price.
This is the approach adopted by our Quest strategies, which are often used by investors to:
> diversify and complement existing growth equity allocations
> as an alternative to narrow low volatility strategies
> deliver alpha and strong sustainability characteristics
