About the Nomura Global Quantitative Equity Conference in London 2013
You are cordially invited to attend the Nomura Global Quantitative Equity Conference to be held at our offices in London on 29 May 2013.
The conference will include a wide range of speakers from distinguished practitioners, academics, to end-asset owners.
External speakers will include Rob Arnott, Chairman, Research Affiliates Llc, who will discuss investing in a low-yield, slow-growth, low-return world and the emergence of Alternative Beta. We also have a number of buy side speakers including Dr Michael Heldmann, Senior Portfolio Manager, Allianz Global Investors on style investing against min vol benchmarks. From the academia space we have Dr Sohnke Bartram, Warwick Business School, who will be speaking on interesting new ideas using data that have become recently available to quants.
The Nomura speakers will be the heads of quant research in each region. We will present both models that we have developed and commentary on one of the fastest-growing areas of fund management – Alternative Beta. To round of this theme we will have Nomura’s Head of Fixed Income quant, Anthony Morris presenting. Last but not least, there will be a panel discussion with end-asset owners and practitioners in the quant investment space.
We hope that you will join us along with your fellow leaders in the field of quantitative investment at this special event for a stimulating session of learning and discussion.
In the evening we will also host a drinks reception and opportunity for networking.
