“We’re proud to report on the outstanding performance of the quantumrock Equity Alpha strategy in 2022. As we saw during the last major crisis for equity markets in 2020, quantumrock Equity Alpha has demonstrated exceptional portfolio enhancement capabilities over the last twelve months, which we confidently predict will continue well into 2023.” –Stefan Tittel, CEO at quantumrock
The outstanding performance of the quantumrock Equity Alpha strategy demonstrates the benefits of a well-diversified approach. By combining various alpha sources from long volatility, short equity, and equity recovery strategies, the crisis alpha-generating strategy has been able to significantly enhance client portfolios in volatile markets. For the investor, just a handful of the compelling reasons to adopt this approach include a stark potential to improve their portfolio’s average returns, and a reduction in volatility and maximum drawdown. The Equity Alpha strategy's crisis alpha sub-strategies also positively impacted the firm’s Absolute Return strategy, enabling it to outperform most of its peers in 2022.
Following these exceptional end-of-year results, the outlook for quantumrock going forward is hugely positive. For 2023, the award-winning AI-driven investment technology company is to launch the first institutional-grade gemstone investment vehicles, yet again tapping a new source of alpha performance for their clients. With historically relatively low correlations to the major asset classes like stocks, bonds, and gold, and high return potential even during market downturns, precious stones offer a solid addition to any well-diversified portfolio. Hence, quantumrock and their partners are currently structuring the first institutional-grade gemstone investment vehicles to enable their clients to add the potentially lucrative, stabilising and portfolio-enhancing benefits of gemstones to their portfolios. In the current climate, such advantages are likely to be seen as particularly attractive to investors.
