Sonali Basak, Chief Investment Strategist at iCapital, sits down with Greg Bond, Chief Investment Officer of Man Group, to discuss what is driving the strength of quantitative hedge funds, where hidden risks may be building, and how AI is changing the way investors conduct research and prepare for market shocks.
Bond explains why investors should look beyond headline returns and pay closer attention to the unexpected connections emerging across investment strategies and multi-strategy platforms. He also shares how AI is transforming research, uncovering new sources of diversification, and creating entirely new ways to stress-test portfolios through simulated market environments.
