ABOUT US
Quantitative. Systematic. Tactical.
QST is a San Francisco based investment management firm that specializes in multi-asset, tactical portfolio management designed to actively mitigate risk while providing opportunity for growth. We employ advanced financial modeling techniques to identify opportunities and underlying risks that exist within liquid financial markets and the broader macroeconomic landscape.
The firm was founded around a relentless pursuit for building industry leading investment strategies designed to generate positive asymmetrical risk/return profiles within a robust risk framework.
OUR PHILOSOPHY
The largest sources of alpha lie in the efficient reduction of unnecessary risk exposure
We seek to generate exceptional risk-adjusted & absolute returns for our investors and believe to do this we must first and foremost understand and efficiently reduce exposure to unnecessary risk, particularly during periods of market crisis. We build models designed to identify and forecast these events and actively monitor our risk exposures to take advantage of favorable investment conditions.
INVESTMENT STRATEGIES
QST is a leading tactical investment firm that focuses its efforts in two distinct investment approaches. Each strategy is built upon deeply researched quantitative methods designed to manage risk and enhance returns.
Hedged Tactical Equity
Tactical rotation between growth and defense with active hedging overlay
QST employs a tactical investment approach designed to capitalize on rising equity market conditions while systematically shifting into defensive positions as the risk of a protracted market drawdown becomes elevated. To manage short-term market pullbacks, it will tactically hedge long positions.
Principal Protection
Principal protection with uncapped upside participation in equity markets
A multi-asset strategy composed of derivatives and fixed income instruments aimed at providing upside participation in equity markets with full principal protection. Positions are strategically structured to provide multiple levels of capital preservation while still offering strong growth opportunities.
