Systematic bottoms-up stock selection
Active management is at an inflection point
While passive management simplifies many aspects of investing, alpha generation through active management is an imperative for investors trying to meet their future obligations. After a market cycle of disappointment from active management, the question for these investors is how to capture alpha in a better way.
At Epsilon, we deliver bottoms-up stock-selection alpha through a systematic process. We create investment strategies from big data signals generated by the entire active management community. We believe this approach is uniquely suited to solve the active/passive dilemma. It provides active risk with consistency in mind. It is structurally advantaged to deliver lower fees, full transparency, and daily liquidity. It attempts to harness the best of active and passive.

The Epsilon Flywheel
So how do we deliver passive liquidity, transaprency, and fees with active alpha? By removing the expensive pursuit of fundamental security analysis. We make security selection decisions through big data analysis of regulatory filings. We tap into the collective wisdom of all active managers to distill their cumulative fundamental research. This provides tremendous cost advantages for our products, which we can pass on to our investors. Our focus is centered on portfolio construction and process improvement, the key ingredients in delivering consistent alpha.
