AIMA APAC FMB Webinar: How to Unlock Alpha Using Accounting Risk as a Screening Tool
AIMA APAC invites you to our virtual fund manager briefing (FMB) webinar on 17 September 2025.
Learn how to leverage accounting quality as a screening tool, identifying hidden risks and avoiding companies likely to underperform, thus improving overall portfolio signal-to-noise ratio and delivering considerable alpha. This approach emphasises that systematically avoiding high-risk companies can be more powerful than return chasing, offering diversification benefits and a more consistent investment journey for portfolio managers.
To illustrate, the team at Transparently.ai will showcase an AI-powered model portfolio that is short the 25 highest-risk US companies and long the S&P 500. This strategy outperformed the S&P 500 by 2.5x since July 2021.
