Systematic investing often gets lumped in with opaque, black-box quant models that seem impossible to explain. But the best strategies can be anything but mysterious. At their core, they’re about applying consistent rules, managing risk with discipline, and making decisions driven by data. So how can incorporating systematic strategies help strip out bias and improve portfolio consistency?

This month Lukasz speaks with Matt Jones, Portfolio Manager for Fidelity’s Global Systematic strategies where they discuss the systematic advantage - a process that’s rules-based, risk-aware, and adaptable to multiple investment styles. Discover how they can achieve more consistent results, meet transparency demands, and better align with portfolio objectives.
