A.I.
Ichihan Tai, Portfolio Manager / Head of Data Science, Tokio Marine Asset Management | September 19, 2017
Ichihan's findings should provide lean thinking in trading/investment R&D processes for both quantitative and fundamental managers.
The primary costs of running a trading/investment strategy are twofold: market costs (i.e., commissions and market impacts) and operational costs (i.e. R&D costs and post trade execution costs).
Therefore, great performance after accounting for market costs alone is not sufficient for the survival of a strategy and the business, as we have seen from the recent struggles of high-frequency trading shops despite them hardly ever had “lost” money.
Ichihan's presentation will share how Tokio Marine are able to cut costs and improve scalabilities of investment research dramatically by leveraging the recent developments in AI.
In their view point, what AI has brought to the industry is not an arms race but an industrial revolution.

High inflation has returned in developed markets after decades of lying low. In our latest paper, we show how to build an inflation-based asset allocation strategy using sentiment data and we illustrate that sentiment-based strategies outperform models that depend merely on past observed inflation values.
This year's RavenPack Research Symposium brought two intense days of knowledge sharing in London and New York, from 25 top experts in natural language processing, quantitative investing and machine learning. Together, we explored how firms can leverage new language models to generate alpha, better manage risk and respond to calls for more sustainable investment practices.
Human capital is at the heart of value creation. Our latest research demonstrates how unprecedented workforce insights, sourced from over 200 million job postings, can generate more alpha.
