Quoniam is an active, quantitative manager which believes that a structured investment process can generate sustainable returns compared to a passive investment and that the manner in which information is processed is a crucial success factor. For this reason, they develop quantitative investment strategies that process fundamental information on companies and markets. The firm follows a bottom-up approach, to produce performance forecasts on significant indivdual equities which are based on financial statements, equity valuations, investor sentiment, and macroeconomic factors. The factor weightings are regularly re-calibrated, ensuring dynamic adjustment in response to new market developments. They then implement performance forecasts in a risk-controlled manner. Quoniam makes investment decisions based on fundamental know-how. They also use models and methodology to analyze information in an objective, controlled, and historical manner. As a result, they are able to construct broadly diversified portfolios comprising numerous small, actively-managed positions.
