This involves identifying opportunities across companies, sectors and countries by evaluating a diverse set of fundamental and market-based predictive factors. Portfolios are constructed through the use of a mean variance optimizer and proprietary risk and transaction cost models.

Arrowstreet Capital manages approximately $100 billion for over 200 client relationships in North America, the United Kingdom, Europe and the Asia-Pacific regions.
