We develop non-linear approach (ML and LLM based solutions) to enhance investment ideas.

Stock-specific Events

Far from the traditional parametric approach, we identify patterns to improve timing, confirm our different alpha signals.

Quantamental Approach

Factor Investing

Technical Analysis

At the core of our investment philosophy is a comprehensive synthesis of different approaches, underpinned by the following pillars:

Alternative and Big Data

- Proprietary set of data (supply chain, thematic mapping tables, tailored macro indicators),
- Collaboration with other big data providers,
- Stock-specific work (company KPIs ...)

Our added value is our ability to refine factor definitions to their fundamental meaning (e.g. the compounder, mispricing ...) and to implement bespoke, finely tuned adjustments for each distinct market cluster.

We develop frameworks for company and specific industries modelisation, using a dedicated AI approach, leveraging textual data (filings, news ...) in combination of fundamental and macro-economics data.

Investment Philosophy

Geographical focus

+ Largest liquidity breadth as China has nearly 4,000 companies (A-Shares) with an ADV higher than $5 mn/day, compared to 2,500 for the US (as of May 2025),

+ Driver of Emerging Markets economy,

+ Among the leading position in most advanced technologies

Even if our primary focus is on China, the impact of US markets is very relevant to some Chinese industries and our models fit very well the US stock markets.
