A major challenge to today's Asset Management firms is the constantly increasing volume of data to consume in order to evaluate current and future investment opportunities.

Quantitative Analysts and Fund Managers are working in an increasingly competitive space. Investment strategies are highly proprietary, and dependent on the type of fund and the asset classes used in the fund.

This morning workshop explores how data & text mining can improve decision making.
