Diskretionäres Fondsmanagement wird auch in Zukunft bestehen bleiben, wenn ein Mehrwert wie Alpha erzielt wird, aber Quant-Modelle werden durch die Künstliche Intelligenz (KI) und das Machine Learning (ML) verändert. Das sei ein schleichender Prozess und die Symbiose zwischen Menschen und Maschinen werde immer wichtiger. Deswegen hat Stefan Tittel bereits im Jahr 2012 das Technologie-Unternehmen Quantumrock gegründet und 2016 das erste Produkt gestartet.
Tittel sagt im Gespräch mit Fundview: „Wir sind ein Technologie-Unternehmen, das seinen Wettbewerbsvorteil im Einsatz von Technologien wie Künstlicher Intelligenz und Machine Learning sieht. Wir erforschen, entwickeln und wenden maschinelles Lernen und KI an, um die Leistung zu steigern und das Risiko in hochvolatilen Umgebungen zu senken. Durch die Wissenschaft wollen wir eine bessere Vermögensverwaltung anbieten.“

(...) For instance, Quantumrock is finalizing a deal with an undisclosed bank in Singapore to use Quantumrock technology for its own customers. The Singapore bank would mark the third such client for Quantumrock.In this case, the bank asked Quantumrock to customize its VSOP program to protect its customers from risks less severe than tail risks. Quantumrock developed four new strategies for the bank.

(...) Stefan Tittel bleibt lieber bei klassischen Kapitalmarktdaten. Der Geschäftsführer und Gründer von Quantumrock beschäftigt sich bereits seit 2013 mit KI im Asset Management. Für ihn gehören Quant und KI zusammen: „Wir sind durch unsere Künstliche Intelligenz in der Lage, am Ende des Prozesses ein ausführbares Quant-Modell aus der KI-Plattform fallen zu lassen.“ So würde die Technologie laufend in einem von Kapitalmarktexperten abgestecktem Terrain nach Ineffizienzen fahnden und Strategien entwickeln, mit denen sich dann ein Alpha generieren lässt. Weil die Märkte allerdings ständig in Bewegung sind, brauche es eine Künstliche Intelligenz – und nicht nur einen statischen, systematischen Ansatz. Belastbare Studien zu Renditevorteilen gibt es quasi nicht, eher taugt das Scheitern vieler statischer Modelle durch verschwindene Kapitalmarktineffizienzen als Vorteilsnachweis.

Die Münchner Investment-Boutique Quantumrock erweitert ihr Senior Executive Council (SEC) um fünf neue Mitglieder. Das Gremium wurde im April ins Leben gerufen. Der Council hat vor allem beratende Funktion, wie Stefan Tittel, CEO von Quantumrock, im exklusiven Interview mit Citywire Deutschland im Juni ausführte.
Die aktuelle Erweiterung des Councils sei ein weiterer Schritt zur Internationalisierung des Angebots von Quantumrock, so Tittel: „Gerade aus Asien und den USA besteht zunehmende Nachfrage nach unseren Strategien zum progressiven Kapitalerhalt. Es ist für uns daher eine logische Konsequenz, unser Netzwerk in diesen Regionen zu verstärken und auszubauen.“
Zum 1. November wurde das Council um diese fünf Mitglieder erweitert:

Frankfurt Vor zwei Jahrhunderten ersann E.T.A. Hoffmann einen Maschinenmenschen. Der Schriftsteller gilt als gedanklicher Urvater des Roboters. Heute hat Künstliche Intelligenz auch in der Finanzwelt Fuß gefasst. Von Algorithmen gesteuerte Anlagestrategien bilden zwar immer noch eine Nische.
Aber eine Handelsblatt-Analyse solcher Ansätze zeigt: Die meisten dieser Konzepte erzielten in den vergangenen zwölf Monaten zweistellige prozentuale Renditen. Der Indexfonds „Xtrackers AI & Big Data Ucits ETF“ der DWS führt die Rangliste mit 45 Prozent Ertrag an. Zum Vergleich: Der Weltaktienindex schaffte 29 Prozent.
Methoden der Künstlichen Intelligenz, meist abgekürzt mit KI, werden immer ausgefeilter. Datenmengen und Datenquellen sind in den vergangenen Jahren enorm gewachsen. Ein Mensch kann das nicht mehr verarbeiten.

Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning have generated a great deal of buzz over the past few years and market participants have held their collective breath waiting for their potential to be filled. It was never going to be an overnight revolution, but the pandemic has lit a fire under institutions who were reluctant to take the plunge. Compressed margins and intense competition are forcing them to look to technologies that not only create greater efficiencies but also sharpen their edges.
“It is always difficult to drive change, but AI is one of today’s hottest subjects since it has transformed most industries in recent years, including the asset management industry,” says Stefan Tittel, CEO of Quantumrock, “The pandemic made people realise that they needed to do something now. As with many things, these trends were already happening, but the pandemic was an accelerator.”

Stefan Tittel, CEO of Quantumrock, talks AI Magazine through the one clear advantage of the COVID-19 pandemic ─ advanced technology implementation
Crises, when they occur, have one very clear advantage: they force us to think and accelerate new processes. In 2020, we sat and observed the COVID-19 crisis cause widespread concern and economic hardship for consumers, businesses and communities across the globe. The asset management industry has also taken a step back to re-evaluate the way that it functions.
Advanced technology has begun to change as AI and machine learning takes an ever-greater portion of the asset management industry. It is invading further and further into the wider strategy domain, which was once the exclusive territory of human analysts.

Nach fünf Jahren zieht Quantumrock für sein Volatility Special Opportunities Program (VSOP) eine positive Bilanz. Die mit Künstlicher Intelligenz (KI) und maschinellem Lernen entwickelte Strategie erfüllt ihre Ziele und performt seit Auflage im Juli 2016 über alle Marktphasen im oder über Plan.
Die stabile Performance der VSOP-Strategie von Quantumrock belegt, dass der Einsatz von KI im Asset Management zwar aufwendig, aber möglich ist. Die Monatswerte der Strategie vor Kosten (Brutto-Werte) zeigt die folgende Grafik.
Vorzeigbarer Track Record
VSOP wurde im Juli 2016 als Quantumrocks erstes eigenes Investmentprodukt auf den Markt gebracht, allerdings noch nicht als Fondsprodukt. Die Brutto-Wertentwicklung der Strategie seit Auflegung liegt bei 101,41 Prozent, die durchschnittliche Gesamtrendite pro Jahr beträgt 15,61 Prozent. -
We have been reporting since the beginning of the pandemic on an artificial intelligence program called VSOP, which runs an equity tail hedge strategy. And for good reasons; it finished 2020 up more than 30%, and it is still on a roll with a Q1-2021 performance of +2.77%.
VSOP is managed by Quantumrock, a German hedge fund manager.
"We are convinced that artificial intelligence (AI) will be a key driver of exceptional performance in asset management," Quantumrock's Nadine Korehnke tells Opalesque. "Already today, we can attribute a significant part of our positive performance to AI technologies.
"Artificial intelligence has disrupted most industries in recent years and the asset management industry will be no exception. In the process of developing new strategies, AI can deliver better return and risk characteristics by its ability to process large amounts of data and by understanding complex and multidimensional patterns."

Despite difficult market conditions, Quantumrock’s flagship strategy, Volatility Special Opportunities Program (VSOP), has closed February with +0.49 per cent.
At the end of February, the 10-year Treasury yield surged above 1.5 per cent, exceeding the estimated dividend yield on the S&P 500 Index, which stood at about 1.43 per cent. The S&P 500 Index lost 2.5 per cent on one of its worst days so far in 2021 and caused a jump of more than 13 per cent in the VIX Index. One of our tail hedge strategies, "Equity Protect VIX", which monitors spikes in the VIX index, was able to catch this surge, hedging the portfolio's long equity and bond exposure highly effectively.

Traditionally, Europe has been more focused on small and medium enterprises and manufacturing, so it’s time for the development of AI to tap into this established structure. One may find it surprising to learn that there is no shortage of AI innovators in Europe, many with compelling use cases. In our view, the most promising AI start-ups (funded within 10 years, and with less than $50m of funds raised) with the potential to drive economic growth in Europe can be placed into five categories:
Fintech. While identity checks and everyday banking have been obvious beneficiaries of AI, it has also been widely adapted for the purpose of customer communications and complex services, such as risk analysis, investing, and insurance claim assessments. Promising innovators: Yapily, DreamQuark, Coya, Candis, Quantumrock.

How does Quantumrock innovate?
Stefan Tittel: By its very nature, working with AI and ML means continuous innovation as you’re always researching, learning new methods, making new predictions, etc., so that is one way we innovate.

According to Quantumrock's CEO Stefan Tittel, his firm is an AI-driven tech company in asset management rather than an asset management company applying “a bit” of technology. He quickly adds that this is “not a subtle but a major difference.”
Founded in 2012, Quantumrock's aim was to develop a systematic scientific investment process to generate sustainable risk-adjusted returns for their proprietary trading activities. Their flagship strategy VSOP (Volatility Special Opportunities Program) has now a four-year track record with an 18% annualized return and achieved a significant outperformance: the COVID crisis of 2020 has been playing to Quantumrock's strengths with VSOP performing in both crash and recovery environments.

AI will continue to accelerate and reshape the asset management industry. Asset managers need to embrace AI disruption.
“You never want a serious crisis to go to waste.... it’s an opportunity to do things that you think you could not before.” So said former Obama chief of staff Rahm Emanuel in an interview with the Wall Street Journal during the global financial crisis. For asset management firms, these words are very relevant today.
$80 trillion is currently invested by human strategies in the asset management industry. Despite recognising the critical role that technology will play in the evolution of the industry, unlike technology professionals, too few asset managers have invested in innovation to build-in resilience and stay ahead of emerging trends that are in full force today.

Ever since the advent of active asset management, Wall Street has had two holy grails: finding a consistent source of Alpha (which these days simply means frontrunning the Fed), and finding a replacement to the most expensive cost-center in the asset management industry: analysts. And while many have tried and failed to replace (highly paid) humans, an obscure German hedge fund is appears to have struck gold after generating a 34% gain in 2020 using a machine-learning program targeting need-for-speed markets.

A leading AI strategy
The Volatility Special Opportunities Program (VSOP) is up +21.5% as at April 30, 2020.
VSOP uses a systematic multi-strategy approach in the S&P 500 index volatility market with a real-money track record dating back to July 2016. Its total performance since then is +78% - compared to +32% for the S&P500.
The program consists of several proprietary algorithmic and fully automated sub-strategies, according to a document reviewed by Opalesque.

VSOP provides an effective intraday and short-term tail hedge, through situative long VIX exposure, while generating positive returns via its long equity bias during bullish market phases.
