What is a “Quant Fund?"

Quant Funds are data-driven investment solutions. Instead of relying on emotional bias or predictions, they use mathematical models to:

But what makes them powerful is how they analyze stocks. This brings us to Factor Investing—the science behind Quant Funds.

What is Factor Investing and How Does it Differ from Traditional Passive Strategies?

Investing isn’t just about picking stocks—it’s about understanding what drives returns.

Factor investing focuses on specific traits like value, momentum, and quality to drive returns, while traditional investing emphasizes broad allocation across asset classes, regions, or sectors.
