Host Rajan Bansi sits down with Arup Datta, Head of Mackenzie’s Global Quantitative Equity Team, to demystify modern quantitative investing, and why its edge is built for real world portfolios. They unpack how transparency, governance, and human oversight turn data into repeatable global stock selection across international developed and emerging markets, and what it takes to stay disciplined when factors fall out of favour. Finally, Arup shares how measured positioning shifts, like a value tilt, are implemented with risk controls designed to separate signal from noise. Listen to get ahead of your next client conversation.
