Description

Expert real-world insight on the intricacies of quantitative trading before, during, and after the tradeThe Elements of Quantitative Investing is a comprehensive guide to quantitative investing, covering everything readers need to know from inception of a strategy, to execution, to post-trade analysis, with insight into all the quantitative methods used throughout the investment process. This book describes all the steps of quantitative modeling, including statistical properties of returns, factor model, portfolio management, and more. The inclusion of each topic is determined by real-world applicability. Divided into three parts, each corresponding to a phase of the investment process, this book focuses on well-known factor models, such as PCA, but with essential grounding in financial context. This book encourages the reader to think deeply about simple things. The author, Giuseppe Paleologo, has held senior quantitative research and risk management positions at three of the four biggest hedge fund platforms in the world, and at one of the top three proprietary trading firms. Currently, he serves as the Head of Quantitative Research at Balyasny Asset Management with $21 billion in assets under management. He has held teaching positions at Cornell University and New York University and holds a Ph.D. and two M.S. from Stanford University. This book answers questions that every quantitative investor has asked at some point in their career, including: How do I model multivariate returns?How do I test these models, either developed by me or by commercial vendors?How do I incorporate asset-specific data in my model?How do I convert risk appetite and expected returns into a portfolio?How do I account for transaction costs in portfolio management?The Elements of Quantitative Investing earns a well- deserved spot on the bookshelves of financial practitioners seeking expert insight from a leading financial executive on quantitative investment topics―knowledge which is usually accessible to few and transmitted by one-on- one apprenticeship.

  • A Masterclass in Quantitative Investing
This is an excellent book, likely to become a standard reference for quant investing. It starts with foundational topics such as returns modeling and factor analysis and procedes to practical areas such as portfolio optimization and performance attribution. It's accessible to students with undergrad-level math, but has enough novel information that it will be valuable to experts as well. The main chapters are entertaining and easy to read considering the technical subject matter, but each chapter also has an appendix with the underlying math and proofs that will be valuable if you're going deep on a topic. I've worked in fundamental and quant investing for 20 years and have rarely found a book like this which combine academic rigor with a practical approach. ... show more

  • Deeply Insightful, But Disappointed by Black & White Graphics
I’ve been a long-time follower of Giuseppe and was eagerly awaiting the release of this book. Having already read earlier drafts of this book and learned immensely from his previous works, I knew this would be a must-have—and it certainly delivers in terms of content. The book provides a clear, practical, and in-depth walkthrough of the quantitative investment process from modeling to execution and post-trade analysis. It’s especially valuable for those who want to not just build models, but think critically about every stage of the investment pipeline. That said, one downside: despite the $70+ price tag, all the graphs and visualizations are in black and white. Given the complexity of some illustrations, color would have significantly improved readability and comprehension. Still, this is a high-quality resource and a worthwhile investment if you’re serious about quant investing. Highly recommended—with a small wish for a color edition in the future. ... show more
