Numeric Investors offers a variety of actively managed quantitative investment strategies including long-only, market neutral, active extension (130/30) equity and fundamental statistical arbitrage. Their strategies cover a variety of geographic regions, investment styles and market-cap ranges. All portfolios at Numeric are managed under the direction of their Chief Investment Officer, with oversight from the firm’s Investment Committee. Their investment approach is based on the idea that in the aggregate, markets are efficient and real economic performance drives returns, but over certain time periods markets are inefficient. This results in stock prices that fluctuate more than the underlying information set.

AJO offers benchmark-relative and absolute-return strategies across the market-cap spectrum of US, global and emerging markets equities, subject to the investment policies, limitations, and restrictions of their clients. They are value-oriented but believe superior results are best achieved by considering value, management, momentum, and sentiment. AJO favor asset-rich companies with higher earnings compared to price. Portfolios can be long-only or long/short. As a quantitative asset manager, AJO’s bottom-up research effort focuses on enhancing their firm-wide valuation, risk, and transaction-cost models, and ensuring that the data that feeds these models are accurate and representative for each company.
