Valois by Yorkseed: The Allocator Table
Portfolio Resilience in an Age of Volatility
How family offices and private investors are evaluating systematic and quantitative strategies
Valois by Yorkseed will convene an intimate breakfast roundtable for a carefully selected group of private investors, family offices and independent capital allocators.
Taking place during Climate Week NYC and the United Nations General Assembly, the gathering will examine how investors are approaching portfolio construction, diversification and risk management amid changing market conditions.
This is a moderated, participatory conversation for approximately 10 to 12 guests. It is designed to encourage candid discussion, relevant introductions and meaningful relationships within a small private setting.
The Conversation
Participants will explore:
The role of systematic and quantitative strategies in building portfolio resilience
How investors are evaluating volatility, liquidity, correlation and downside protection
What allocators consider when assessing quantitative managers, investment processes and risk controls
How systematic strategies may complement private markets and traditional portfolio allocations
A brief opening perspective will frame the conversation, followed by a moderated roundtable in which every guest will have the opportunity to contribute.
