Proprietary factor signals and smarter construction creates multi-factor strategies focused on taking compensated risks.

Quantitative strategies seek to outperform a benchmark by exploiting market anomalies and behavioral biases using proprietary, quantitative models and processes to select securities, construct portfolios, and manage risk to deliver targeted outcomes.

Our diverse quantitative strategies combine investment professionals’ expertise with sophisticated quantitative models to meet the needs of investors at any level, from institutional investors and advisors to individuals and their families.

Northern Trust quantitative strategies are cost-efficient, perform as designed, take intentional compensated risks and improve asset allocation through purer factor exposures. We focus on multi-factor portfolio construction using our proprietary definitions for quality, value, volatility, and momentum to enhance risk-adjusted returns.
