Robeco's QS Department

Innovative and creative

Robeco Quantitative Strategies (QS) is a department of experts. Our staff all has a quantitative background in econometrics, mathematics, economics or physics. Some are connected to universities as assistant or associate professors. They deal with quantitative-investment strategies and products. Important ingredients are innovation and creativity. For more information, see www.robeco.com/quant.

Important role

QS has developed explosively. The role of quantitative investment in Robeco's professional investment practice has gained in importance considerably in recent years. The role of quantitative models is no longer purely an advisory one. At the end of 2008, Robeco manages about EUR 10 billion purely based on quantitative models. Some of the funds based on quantitative models are available to retail investors, e.g. Robeco Lux-o-rente, Robeco Flex-o-rente, Robeco European conservative equity, Robeco 130/30 European equities, and Robeco 130/30 Emerging markets equities. You can find more information on these investment funds at www.robeco.com or www.morningstar.nl.

Knowledge and experience

The department has many years' experience supervising top university talent and publishing academic research. The relevant knowledge as well as the extensive experience in supervising interns will be available to you during your internship at QS. A Super Quant Internship is an excellent steppingstone for your future career, both inside and outside Robeco.
