With thousands of mutual funds offered in the market place, investors are spoilt for choice. To assist investors with their fund selection, CGS International is making this process simple with our in-house screening model.

Building on wealth of experience of our strong quantitative research team, CGS International has developed our very own screening model - CGS International Quantitative Models (“CQM”). The models are built on machine learning techniques; using statistical inputs to evaluate the mutual funds’ “unbiased” performance beneath the name it bears. It can handle vast amount of data to perform complex calculations and efficiently screen out the “gems” for our clients.
