The Derivative

Asset Allocation, AI, and the Alpha Process with Resolve Asset Management


Listen Later

We sit down with the three Canadian founders of Resolve Asset Management to talk zebras walking amongst horses, mid-frequency trading (move over HFT), how the Chicago Bears don’t add Alpha, extracting structural market flaws, low carb diets, regulatory and structural arbitrage,  Peru and the Shining Path terrorist group, orthogonal carry, fasting,  winning the content game, and economic reasoning to appease the complex thinker.

Resolve Asset Management is a systematic asset manager out of Toronto focusing on unique and advanced ways of implementing global asset allocation. They operate managed account, private funds, and a mutual fund (RDMIX); using varying automated investment and allocation strategies; including flavors and ensembles of trend following, carry, seasonality, skewnewss, behavioral arbitrage (think trading around a big fund needing to rebalance at end of quarter), and AI/machine learning informed “alpha buckets”.
