Systematic Investing in Emerging Markets: AI, Alternative Data, and the 130/30 Edge

Join us for a webinar featuring Daniel Taylor, CIO of Equities at Systematic within Man Group, and Michael Dilamani, Client Portfolio Manager, to explore how systematic equity investing can uncover alpha opportunities in emerging markets.

In this webinar, we will:

  • Explore the systematic opportunity in emerging markets: Learn how the growth of local data and advances in machine learning may create opportunities for alpha generation.
  • Examine the role of shorting in portfolio construction: Discover how incorporating short positions could help allocators navigate record index concentration and broaden opportunities to outperform a benchmark.
  • Introduce MEMA—the Man Active Emerging Markets Alternative ETF: Get to know Man Group’s 130/30 quantitative emerging markets equity strategy, designed to capture alpha from both long and short positions while maintaining full equity exposure.
  • Consider MEMA’s role in a portfolio: Explore how allocators can use MEMA to pursue differentiated active returns in emerging markets, drawing on a team with over 35 years of experience in systematic equities and more than 15 years managing dedicated long/short emerging markets equity strategies.
