Redefining Diversification: Systematic and Adaptive Strategies for a New Market Regime

Recently, we participated in the Swiss Fund Platform AG 'Systematic Investing in Uncertain Times' roundtable in Zurich, joining 50+ investment professionals for an exchange on today's market landscape.

The discussion centered on a fundamental shift in portfolio construction: classic 60/40 allocations are reaching their limits, and equity-bond correlations no longer offer reliable protection. The question for asset managers is not whether to look beyond traditional approaches, but where to find true, structural diversification.

Peter Stiefel, Senior Sales, and Valentin Betrix, Systematic Portfolio Manager, presented our RAM European Market Neutral Equity strategy, showing how:

• A unique macro context — fiscal dominance, an unprecedented AI capex boom, and rising geopolitical risk — challenges the historical playbook for allocators
• Systematic, AI-driven processes help capture this opportunity, generating uncorrelated sources of return
• Market-neutral approaches seek to strengthen portfolio resilience, independent of market direction
• An end-to-end systematic workflow, from data and signal generation to GPU-powered inference and execution, keeps strategies continuously adapting to new market regimes

Thank you to the organisers and all participants for the insights and open exchange. We look forward to continuing the dialogue.
