Model-driven, indexed and capital-protected specialist THEAM is profiled in the latest issue of The Hedge Fund Journal

THEAM, BNP Paribas Investment Partners' specialist in model-driven, indexed and capital-protected investment, is profiled in issue 117 of The Hedge Fund Journal (THFJ).

THEAM’s award-winning funds are based primarily on its distinctive interpretation and application of academic research, and its proprietary research, into areas including anomalies around behavioural finance. THEAM belongs to one of Europe’s largest asset managers, BNP Paribas Investment Partners (BNPP IP), which manages over €530 billion, across around 20 groups with structures ranging from internal units to autonomous groups and partly or wholly owned subsidiaries, including THEAM, which manages around €38 billion. THEAM pursues predominantly systematic and quantitative, model-driven, investing, including indices and ETFs (branded as BNP Paribas Easy), multi-strategy quantitative approaches, factor-based investing, and ‘smart beta’.

THEAM’s alpha engines can be applied to long only, absolute return or hedge fund return objectives, in formats including UCITS funds, ETFs and structured products including some that can offer varying degrees of capital protection. THEAM’s asset split is roughly €15 billion in indices, €15 billion in model-driven and €8 billion in structured products. THEAM invests in all liquid asset classes: equities, fixed income, currencies, commodities and associated derivatives including volatility instruments.
