Quant Analyst

Quant Analyst is a strategic consultancy servicing banks, asset and wealth managers, brokers, and business schools. Established as a majority black-owned firm pioneering financial technology in South Africa, we draw from an advisory group with more than 40 years of collective experience in business leadership. Are you spending too much valuable time every day updating numerous, ad-hoc administrative intensive workbooks? Are you sceptical about buying or using one size fits all, off-the-shelf risk management, trade and investment systems? Do you prefer confirming capital market views using custom independent analyses? If the above resonates with you, then Quant Analyst have the perfect solution for you. Typical projects that we have done: o Automation of various workbooks and systems - saving both time and money. o Development of trade & investment risk management systems - custom made to fit the unique needs. o Validation of derivative instrument pricing - preventing the black-box usage of critical valuation systems. o Insightful inflation based market scenario modelling used to infer interest rate view conviction. o Integration of (machine learning) quants with traditional indicators to optimise stock trading strategies. o Developing of investment allocation strategies according to client risk profiles. o Design of a capital allocation model under conflicting bank regulatory constraints. o Supervision of credit risk research students, registered at internationally accredited business schools. Our goal is to be a global leader in financial technology. Quant Analyst has offices in Cape Town and Johannesburg and is affiliated with a quant investment corporation situated across the Asia-pacific.
