Quantal International Information

Quantal International Inc. offers a suite of advanced portfolio management products to meet the needs of clients from the investment management industry, together with highly effective on-going customer support and solutions services. Core financial technology consists of global “hybrid” multi-factor models for equities and Government bond returns. The hybrid model combines the accuracy of a latent factor specification -- where common risk factors that cause stocks to move together are inferred from those stock co-movements -- with the explanatory power of a model in which risk exposures are attributed to cross-sectional characteristics. Forward-looking information in implied volatility indexes like VIX are incorporated. Quantal's tried and tested risk forecasts allow users to solve a wide range of portfolio and basket trading objectives, ranging from discovery of unseen factor exposures and stress testing through portfolio tilts to factors that are “best bets” through portfolio rebalancing that incorporates a wide set of client objectives. Quantal is a well established company headquartered in San Francisco, California. We have an exceptionally strong research and development team with key Ph.D. technical strength, and close ties with Stanford and UC Berkeley, world renowned academic institutions. Our knowledgeable and trained personnel provide customized support and consulting services that allow our clients to achieve their individual investment objectives.
