This session will look at how artificial intelligence and big data are changing asset management, with a focus on actual use cases and real-life examples discussing not only the benefits but also the pitfalls. This will include a case study on Natural Language Processing – the automated analysis of text - where Invesco reveals how the answers of corporate executives in quarterly earnings calls provide useful clues to the future evolution of stock returns. Beyond that this session will consider equity trading and factor modelling including insights on ESG.
