Meet the Investor Series: Ben Leung, Macquarie Asset Management
Manage episode 466575562 series 1456832
Welcome to the first episode of Meet the Investor for 2025. In this episode we sit down with Ben Leung, Head of Systematic Investing at Macquarie Asset Management, to explore how data and technology are reshaping investment decision-making.
Ben shares how his team applies a structured, research-driven approach to identifying opportunities in the equity market, using quantitative signals to navigate market complexities and investor behaviour. He explains how systematic investing differs from traditional fundamental analysis and why understanding human psychology — such as herd mentality and loss aversion — can provide an edge.
We also discuss how AI and machine learning are driving the next evolution in quantitative strategies, the importance of risk management, and how investors can think about blending systematic approaches with other investment styles.
