Contents and introduction
The financial industry is in fluctuation like never before. From the pandemic to geopolitical unrest, we’ve been experiencing three years of economic turmoil. For quants however, this is by no means an excuse to sound the alarm. In fact, it’s quite the opposite. It’s a call to do what the quant industry does best – perform well in times of volatility.
With that in mind, the main questions to ask are what are the key opportunities that every quant fund must be going for, how should this be brought about, and why does it matter (what is the ROI?). Conversely, what are the challenges that are being faced on an industry wide level that could impact the short-term and long-term activities of businesses? How can they be faced, and more importantly, how can it be used to generate short-term gains?
The considerations across this eMagazine include an examination of the latest tools and trends that are taking the industry by storm, featuring leading experts in the fields of AI and machine learning, large language models, and more. Additionally, we address the current landscape, corporate compliance and business strategy before concluding with a look at the horizon and what awaits the industry in the future.
