But how has the investment management industry been impacted by better data availability and improved quantitative techniques? How can managers combine quantitative tools with fundamental analysis to be better prepared for an evolving market? Hear from experts on both sides including quantitative analysts and fundamental managers who have quant tools to get a practitioner’s perspective on the recent advances in quantitative investing and how the advanced use of data has merged with concepts of fundamental stock analysis to create better outcomes for investors.
