QuantArea Selects Bloomberg’s BQuant Enterprise to Power Quant Research Service

We are pleased to announce the next stage in the development of our “Quant as a Service” offering: after months of intensive development work, we are now pleased to officially announce our collaboration with Bloomberg.

The combination of our many years of experience and proprietary models with Bloomberg’s BQuant Enterprise platform forms an ideal basis for our “Quant as a Service” offering. In a co-development approach, we work with banks, asset managers and professional investors – including pension funds, foundations and family offices – to develop customised systematic investment solutions and help optimise existing investment strategies.

Whether large or small caps, developed or emerging markets, ESG or fundamental data – the platform offers comprehensive data access and facilitates the implementation of pioneering machine learning and artificial intelligence methods within a modern cloud computing environment. This enables us to respond flexibly to the individual needs of our customers in the shortest possible time.

Many thanks to Mohammed Shayan, Javier Mital Valdes, Richard Kitt and the entire BQuant team for their active support. We look forward to continuing our close co-operation in the future.
