Businesses need quant researchers to make sense of huge datasets and generate actionable insights. The predominance of data analysis, machine learning, and AI means that demand is unlikely to decrease in the foreseeable future.
What Skills Are Required for Quant Researchers?
Quant researchers typically need advanced mathematical, statistical, and programming skills, along with domain expertise and strong analytical thinking.
Do Quant Researchers Use AI?
Quant researchers are playing a key role in our AI-enabled world. Without them, many businesses will struggle to interrogate large datasets and derive competitive insights. Today’s quant researchers are skilled at using AI for quantitative analysis and modelling and applying the results to the commercial domain they work in.
Can Quant Researchers Work Remotely?
Options for remote working in a quant researcher job will depend on factors like the company culture, the role itself, and the infrastructure available.
