Senior Investment Strategists have two
functional roles. First, they act as Investment Strategists
where they systematize and quantify individual investment
strategies for use in the management of an array of equity
and/or derivatives portfolios. Second, they also act as product
managers where they are responsible for determining for an
individual product which individual strategies to include,
and how to weight the included strategies on a relative basis.
By making such decisions, they determine the nature of the
product (within the bounds of the larger objectives of the
firm).
The strategies they manage will typically be
used by them in the product they manage and also by other
Senior Investment Strategists in the products that they manage.
This gives them visibility to rewards from a wider array of
products through their Investment Strategist role, in combination
with visibility to rewards from the specific product they
manage.
Their goal as product manager is to produce
the best return forecasts at the product level by choosing
the optimal combination of strategies, while their goal at
the Investment Strategist level is to provide a partial source
of return forecasts that will be useful to themselves and
to other Senior Investment Strategists in producing composite
forecasts for their respective products. Senior Investment
Strategists are not directly responsible for optimizing and
trading the strategies (these responsibilities fall to Portfolio
Engineering and Trading), nor are they directly responsible
for marketing the strategies, but they are responsible for
ensuring that portfolio strategies are effectively implemented.
