Quantifeed launches new model portfolio
Provider of B2B digital wealth management solutions, Quantifeed has launched a new model portfolio, aimed to capture the opportunities of the multi-year Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), led by China to build a modern version of the Silk Road.
The company said BRI would comprise land and maritime trade routes connecting China with Central Asia, South East Asia, Australia and New Zealand, the Middle East, Africa and Europe.
This would include the construction of ports, warehouses and connections to overland transport as well as upgrade of rail-networks.
According to Quantifeed, the overall infrastructure investment for the BRI would reach US$900 billion.
At the same time, Quantifeed’s model portfolio would consist of Chinese companies that would directly benefit from the BRI and operate across infrastructure development, transportation infrastructure construction, non-residential building construction and renewable energy development and distribution.
Quantifeed’s senior quantitative strategist, Gaudi Schneider, said: “The creation of the Belt and Road model portfolio is a direct response to the needs of our clients and prospects who are looking to offer engaging investing alternatives to their own clients.
“The strategy provides access to Chinese companies that are at the heart of this multi-year initiative.
“Our systematic stock selection process identifies the companies that will benefit from the Belt and road initiative and provide investors with exposure to the likely growth associated with this theme,” he said.
