Responsible for the automated asset allocation process without the influence of a human being, utilizing mathematical algorithms to support investment decisions.Investors select how much downside risk they are willing to accept and algorithms then put together portfolios to make sure that level is met at all times. If an unforeseen event occurs, like an unexpected increase in interest rates, the algorithms will assess for a couple of days whether this will have a sustained impact on the risk of the investment, and adjust the portfolio accordingly.Responsible of the algorithm-based, digital advisory technology in order to lead and develop the increasingly popular “robo-adviser,” which replace human advisers with software programmed to understand and advise on clients’ needsPortfolio Manager of Mexico's first Artificial Intelligence Fund Everest (AUM:MXN $2,500 millions)“Everest,” which is managed in its entirety by Actinver and is the first fund in Mexico that uses AI, uses different algorithms and macroeconomic models that review in real time the opportunities and risks that are seen around the world to do investments. This technology allows a rapid analysis of the macroeconomic issues of any country in the world, and when a certain tendency is detected, the fund says where to invest or disinvest, which allows, rather than seeking better returns, to avoid large losses.Portfolio Manager of Actinver unique Commodities Fund: Actcomm.
