About us

At Quant Foundry we provide quantitative solutions to our finance and vendor clients and are expanding operations into multiple industrial sectors. Chris and David have organised Quant Foundry activities into three “divisions” : – -> Quant Labs builds proof-of-concept research-based solutions -> Quant Forge provides professional consulting services -> Quant Works provides quantitative team augmentation At Quant Labs, we focus on developing fresh approaches that combine traditional analytics with deep machine learning algorithms and artificial intelligence models. The models provide an intellectual property that we monetise through royalty arrangements or subscription. At Quant Forge, we provide clients with support and assurance on model risk governance, risk methodology and model validation. We lead quant teams as part of large programs. We bring deep industry knowledge of how to combine technology, process and analytics to deliver cost-effective solutions. At Quant Works, we provide flexible deployment of senior quants to execute specific deliveries. We organise blocks of model validation where we break up the process between senior on-site quants and juniors in lower cost locations.

    🌍 Introducing S-CloCo Bonds: Financing Climate Action & Futureproofing Economies 🌍 For those at New York Climate week. #ClimateWeekNYC If you are looking for a novel financial mechanism that has the potential to improve the climate transition please read on. It has already gathered interest from one fund, we hope more will follow. From Dr Chris Cormack and Andrea Macrina The Sovereign Climate-Contingent Convertible Bond (S-CloCo) is a revolutionary financial tool designed to help nations and firms tackle climate change. These bonds allow governments to convert bond liabilities into equity when they meet or exceed climate policy goals. For firms, S-CloCo offers flexibility to manage climate transition risks, reduce debt, and unlock capital for green innovation. By aligning finance with decarbonization, the S-CloCo mechanism provides a win-win scenario for the environment, businesses, and economies. 🌱💼 We introduce a number of mechanisms for the Strategic Use of Sovereign Wealth Funds (SWF): Nations can leverage their sovereign wealth funds (SWFs) to back S-CloCo bonds, converting debt into equity through holdings in national and international assets, which reduces public debt burdens while driving climate initiatives. Incentivizing Private Sector Engagement: Through SWF-backed S-CloCo bonds, governments can actively encourage private firms to issue climate-related bonds. SWFs can serve as a safety net, enhancing liquidity and stability, which attracts firms to invest in climate transition technologies. Risk Mitigation through Equity Conversion: SWFs provide a built-in safety mechanism by converting S-CloCo bond liabilities into equity in the fund’s assets. This conversion reduces financial risk for both the state and investors, while supporting national decarbonization policies. Boosting Green Investment Liquidity: By integrating SWFs into S-CloCo structures, governments can stimulate domestic and foreign investments in climate solutions. The SWF acts as a long-term investor, ensuring continued support for green projects even during economic downturns. Enhanced Fiscal Flexibility: SWF-backed S-CloCo bonds allow nations to manage climate funding without increasing public debt. By reallocating equity from SWFs to bondholders, governments can free up capital for further climate adaptation and innovation, promoting sustainable economic growth. https://lnkd.in/eWqErUFM #SovereignWealth #GreenFinance #ClimateTransition #EconomicGrowth #Decarbonization #PublicDebt #SWF

    Can we decarbonize faster? How can we accelerate the transition without impacting growth, inflation, or funding costs? These are pressing questions for firms, policymakers, and researchers. Addressing growth versus capital deployment for net-zero targets demands innovative financial modelling. Uncertainties in emissions abatement, adaptation funding, and fiscal factors complicate decision-making. Firms face policy transition risks, while regulators seek consistent models. Policymakers struggle with intentions versus economic outcomes. In our paper (https://lnkd.in/eDteRxu7), Andrea Macrina and I introduce the Climate Contingent Convertible Bond (CLOCO). This financial instrument mitigates risks, enhances regulatory insight, and, if implemented wisely, could accelerate the transition. This is the first in a series exploring the modelling frameworks behind CLOCO.

    Quant Foundry, in 2019 (before the NGFS process), developed an innovative solution to assess risks to firms undergoing climate transition risks—the approach we designed and shared via an academic publication (see below). The innovative concept of its time has now become an accepted approach, mimicked by regulators and other consultancies. After building a framework to integrate detailed transition data, Quant Foundry has built partnerships with physical risk providers to create unique large-scale risk solutions. We share our expertise with partners to develop the next generation of climate risk analytics that address some of the outstanding risks. We are not stopping there; we are now looking for investors to accelerate our offering. This model allows banks of all sizes, especially smaller banks and asset managers, to leverage competitively priced climate analytics. The business allows firms to access the highest-grade analytics from knowledgeable and independent firms in our partnership universe. Quant Foundry has been shortlisted in the top 10 climate fintechs as part of the Energy Tech Summit in Bilbao, Spain, April 10-11. We welcome interest from investors looking to accelerate what we can offer to build a highly profitable and innovative firm looking to leverage its unique abilities to address the challenges of climate and nature based risks.
