From Equity to Credit: Fast-Track Your Systematic Strategy Launch with Fixed Income Building Blocks

Systematic credit portfolio managers are increasingly taking advantage of readily available building blocks to accelerate their investment processes. These include alpha building blocks such as relative value signals, portfolio construction building blocks such as optimization engines, and risk management building blocks such as factor risk models.  

They are also progressively leveraging the linkage between credit and equity markets, to bring vast amounts of equity data into their systematic credit processes. 

In this webinar, participants learned more about these trends in systematic credit investing and understood the implications for portfolio managers who were launching new strategies or looking to enhance existing strategies.
  

Topics that were discussed:

• Trends in systematic credit 
• Contrasts and parallels between the systematic credit and equity investment processes 
• Systematic credit building blocks: Market overview, what to build vs buy?
