DRTI is about scientific approach

Science and technology, particularly Big Data and AI/machine learning, are critical at DRTI. They will inevitably influence the future of the whole investing sector, and we are proud to be the forerunners of such a business approach.

Continuous data growth

Big data allows financial institutions to gather, integrate, and analyze all data by combining digital and physical channel interactions.¹

1 (Big data investments in knowledge and non-knowledge intensive firms: what the market tells us, Tingting Zhang, William Wang, David J. Pauleen, Journal of Knowledge Management, May 2017).

Fraud detection and security

Big data expands the capabilities of today's analytical infrastructure. It is beneficial to do analysis on the entire range of data available, rather than just a fraction of it.

Customer insight and marketing analytics

Big data technologies enable banks to collect and combine transactional and unstructured data while emphasizing customer-centricity in their dealing efforts.

Here are the four key aspects of scientific approach to investments.

Educate

Focus on knoweledge gathering and market observation

Explore

Develop strategy and roadmap as per bussiness needs

Engage

Pilot big data initiatives and validate requirements

Execute

Deploy 2/more big data initiatives and continue advanced analytics application

Investment decision = Information (data) + Interpretation

Machine learning is another DRTI pillar. ML, a kind of artificial intelligence, allows advanced algorithms to evaluate enormous data sets to generate predictions based on predefined goals. Instead of exactly following human-coded instructions, these algorithms self-adjust via trial and error to create increasingly accurate prescriptions as more data is received.

The huge potential of AI and Machine Learning in investing strategies is in allowing far higher volumes and types of data to be used to guide investment choices, as well as potentially enhancing the interpretation of that data into investment evaluations.¹

Early adopters are making considerable investments, and new product categories are emerging to promote alternate data sources, tools, and skill in analyzing it utilizing formerly innovative Machine Learning approaches.²
