As an investment strategist, Chris Harvey has focused on integrating equity, fixed income and quantitative analysis to assist clients in shaping their investment process and in providing trade ideas, market timing, and risk analysis. More specifically, his strategy work has fused interdisciplinary signals to produce a refined list of sector specific, style and risk recommendations.

Clients have utilized his work in many ways. For example, long only equity funds have employed his macro research in combination with his proprietary pairs trading model to generate actionable investment ideas. Quantitative PM’s and researchers have drawn upon his peer analysis, factor correlation work and proprietary risk indicators to help form their investment process. Macro-oriented investors have utilized his positioning research to evaluate the consensus trade and the scope for contrarian bets.

Chris’ 15 years of experience conducting quantitative and macro analysis within the equity and fixed income markets, on both the buy and sell-side, is the foundation on which many of his unique views and research ideas are based.
