Quantitative Analysts (Quants)

Quantitative analysts, or "quants," are financial professionals who use advanced mathematical models and statistical techniques to analyze markets, assess risks, and develop trading strategies. They rely on large datasets and complex algorithms to predict price movements and identify opportunities, often working in investment banks, hedge funds, or asset management firms. Their goal is to make data-driven decisions that maximize returns and manage financial risks effectively. Quants combine expertise in finance, mathematics, and programming to innovate and optimize financial products and investment processes.
