Decoding Quantitative Investing: Performance, Risk, and Portfolio Allocation with Avanda
Endowus warmly invites you to join us for an exclusive closed-door roundtable discussion hosted by Endowus’ Senior Investment Lead, Ludovic de Pampelonne and Avanda’s Andrew Chan, Head of External Managers from Avanda Investment Management.
In today's complex market landscape, Avanda’s Absolute Return Solutions offer investors a disciplined gateway to elite, capacity-constrained global managers through a rigorous, institutional due diligence and monitoring framework. As investors seek resilient return profiles that decouple from traditional equities, understanding the mechanics, success factors, and portfolio-level benefits of such solutions represents a vital opportunity to optimise asset allocation.
During the event, you will get to hear from key investment professionals from Avanda, a firm founded by the former chief investment officer of GIC and one of the firms awarded under the Singapore Equity Market Development Programme (EQDP). Avanda will share more about their investment philosophy and approach, and also how their suite of hedge fund offerings can provide exposure to some of the most sought after hedge funds in the world.
