Foresight, powered by IBM Watson, is a comprehensive investment platform incorporating security selection, portfolio construction, risk modelling, and simulation.

Strategy Builder

Users can design, test, and analyze investment strategies. In doing so, an user may choose to use a variety of asset classes and geographies. Investment strategies can be long-only, or can be long/short. After designing an investment strategy the user has the option to backtest the strategy, and then iteratively redesign it.

Expected Returns

Machine learning models for return forecasts are available for a vast number of securities across asset classes and geographies. Users have the choice of executing these models over a number of time periods depending on their portfolio objectives.

Signals

Hundreds of price drivers unique to each security are available on the platform. The Explainable AI (XAI) platform continually updates these drivers. Users may choose to use these price drivers for research and/ or security selection.

Events

The platform continuously analyzes millions of news articles round the clock, around the globe, in major languages. It the determines the news and events most relevant to price action for individual securities. Users have the ability to monitor these for their research.

Themes

Such thematic baskets incorporate both direct and indirect relationships present within a theme, and therefore are meaningful tools for investors to express their views on evolving themes.
