Jakarta, 3 April 2024 – Our students from the School of Computer Science (SoCS) had a rare occasion to learn from WorldQuant, the leading global quantitative asset management firm, to delve deep into quantitative finance.

Not only that, but they had a great time understanding the foundation for crafting a business model using the platform WorldQuant BRAIN to gain data on financial markets and discussing the role of algorithms trading in modern investment strategies.

Phuc Le, a researcher at WorldQuant, also discussed the opportunity for students to participate in the Quant Champion 2024, a prestigious competition that challenges participants to develop and implement quantitative trading algorithms.

“Initiatives like the International Quant Champion play a crucial role in nurturing talent and driving innovation in quantitative finance; hence, we encourage students, faculty members, and alumni at BINUS University to participate in IQC 2024, enabling them to unleash their potential in the realm of finance technology,” expressed Mr. Phuc Le, a researcher at WorldQuant.

The championship offers participants the chance to demonstrate their skills on a worldwide platform, competing for recognition and prizes at this year’s Grand Final in Singapore!
