Fundamental to Systematic or Systematic to fundamental? More and more trading firms are increasingly blending the insights and perspectives of fundamental, bottom up analysis and technical, systematic signals to enhance and improve strategies being generated. It's happening in both directions, whether it's discretionary funds bringing in those with a quantitative background to help systematise pre-existing strategies or electronic trading shops looking to utilise the analysis of fundamental specialists - such an approach is becoming more and more common. We're currently working on two roles, with two separate firms where they're looking to blend both methodologies. One is with a discretionary trading firm who are looking to bring in a systematic specialist to help develop and systematise strategies within a specialised quantamental team. Another is with a HFT firm that is looking for an equity research analyst to provide fundamental perspectives to improve existing strats as well as drive new revenue streams from their bottom up analysis. If you're an equity researcher looking to work in a more fast paced and quant driven environment or a quant researcher looking to be part of a new and growing team - reach out, these roles may be of interest. #trading #quantamental #systematic #quantitative #fundamental

End of the week job roll out and interesting tidbit. I recently came across an article highlighting that only about a third of Quantitative Analytics, Research & Trading professionals found their current bonus motivating, and even fewer felt it met their expectations, standing at just 40%. Interestingly, a staggering 85% of these professionals indicated that a low or non-existent bonus would prompt them to leave their current company. With bonus season behind us, it's intriguing to observe how firms heavily reliant on this talent pool and proactive professionals who understand their value navigate this situation. Below is this weeks end of the week job roll out. Get in touch with me (gm@pinpoint.cateers) to discuss. A lot of firms are currently competing form macro Quantitative analyst and traders, the obvious need is there so do get in touch if you are in NY and are looking to explore different options.

Titles of Quant roles can be quite confusing, what’s the difference between ad Quant Researcher and a Quant Analyst for instance? Another really helpful post from Quant Insider that I thought might help shed some light 🔵 Quant Researcher – typically work very closely with PMs and usually takes home a % of PnL Use stats and ML to predict market returns and find “alpha”. Usually have a PhD and have very strong programming 🔵 Quant Trader – traders build algos / computer programmes to make markets / create liquidity. They will buy or sell assets and aim to hedge positions. They make profit from the bid-ask spread. 🔵 Quant Analyst – Quant Analysts build pricing and risk tools. They model asset prices and calculate risk. Typically strong math / statistics background and excellent programming. Knowledge of products / assets 🔵 Quant Developer – a Quant Dev is a hybrid position between a developer and a researcher. They need excellent computer science background but also need to understand finance. Devs put into production trading strategies, build trading platforms or develop pricing / risk tools Thanks for reading and hope it helps. Please like ❤️ / share ♻ / comment 🗣 and it might reach someone that it really helps. If you’d like to discuss further please get in touch, would love to do so. #financialservicesrecruitment #hedgefunds #assetmanagement #quant #quantinvesting #investmentbanking #buyside #sellside #marketmaking #londonjobs #dublinjobs

I feel there is lot of confusion around the roles of Quant: Quant Trader, Quant Reseracher, Quant Developer and Quant Analyst. I have tried to define each roles to the best of my knowledge 💕💕 1. Quantitative Traders: These professionals use mathematical models to inform their trading decisions. They employ techniques like fundamental analysis, technical analysis, and quantitative models for predicting market movements. Quantitative traders are responsible for designing algorithms that search for alpha, or returns above those from standard stock market fluctuations, often using econometrics, statistics, or machine learning. They work in banks or quantitative/systematic hedge funds.🎯🎯 2. Quantitative Researchers: Their focus is on developing and improving mathematical models. They typically have strong mathematical backgrounds, often with PhDs in fields like Math/Stat. They are employed in alternative research firms, large hedge funds, or investment banks, but usually in a middle office capacity, where they concentrate on model development rather than implementation.📚📚 3. Quantitative Developers (Quant Devs): These individuals focus on developing, implementing, and maintaining quantitative models. They work closely with quantitative analysts and software engineers, often in investment banks and hedge funds. Their skills include proficiency in programming languages like Python, C++, C#, and Java, and they are responsible for developing programming libraries, creating numerical library components, and consulting on high-performance computing. They work in various office settings, from front office (close to trading and portfolio management) to middle and back offices (focusing on technology systems and support functions).♥️♥️ 4. Quantitative Modeler: Commonly referred to as a quant or quantitative analyst, uses numerical and quantitative techniques to build complex models. They are typically employed in sectors like investment banking, risk management, and portfolio optimization. Quants require advanced knowledge in mathematics, finance, statistical modeling, and programming languages.😄⭐️😄 #quant #quantitativefinance #financialengineering #riskmanagement #market
