Scalable Tactics to Extract Alpha

The Program consists of complementary systematic strategies, designed to deliver positive and uncorrelated absolute returns independently of market conditions.
In-depth understanding of Futures markets fundamentals and analysis of recurrent patterns are being combined with robust statistical models and advanced data-processing technics to deliver new sources of Alpha.
For this purpose, both fundamental data and alternative data – which contain complementary sources of information – are investigated and confronted. From those analysis, systematic investment technics have been designed to extract Alpha in a consistent manner over time and across different markets and asset classes.

The investment universe is limited to:
– most liquid US and European Equity Index Futures, including S&P500, Nasdaq100, Eurostoxx50, FTSE100, CAC40, DAX30
– most liquid Volatility Index Futures, including VIX and VSTOXX
– most liquid Commodities Futures, including Corn, Wheat and Soybeans
Since strategies are exploiting generic phenomenons and not specific to one particular market, this universe is subject to expansion in order to reach more and more diversification in terms of Alpha sources.
Holding period of each position varies from 1 day to 1 week and the portfolio is rebalanced on a close-to-close basis. This ensures an optimal scalability of the strategy and a limited market impact.
