      Where are people drawing the line on what is and isn't a "quant fund" these days?

      I often hear Citadel referred to as a quant fund which is not strictly accurate (lots of discretionary traders) but not completely inaccurate (lots of quant all over the place, eg to hedge factors in their long/short book or in the central risk book).

      Funds like Brevan and Rokos have big quant teams even though the main strategy is clearly not quant (got to build those curves and price those derivatives) and I hear they are looking more at systematic nowadays.

      Millennium is even further from quant than Citadel but again moving in that direction, they recently hired Ross Garon from Point72 (where he ran their internal quant fund Cubist)

      Interesting, I thought millenium had a fair degree of systematic macro. Also former Rentec russian PMs guys there.

      Yeah I don’t mean that they have no quant (they have billions managed by WQ for a start!) just that all the quant is stuffed into specific trading teams, unlike Citadel where it seems like it touches ~everything.

      Would we say "alpha generation is mostly systematic and automated" would be a reasonable summary of what most people mean by a "quant fund"?

      With that definition you would probably miss the “finance PhD” type quant funds like AQR and others.

      Because of the "alpha" word?

          AQR not automated? I don’t have any special information but I find that hard to believe!
