Quantitative trading has expanded at a faster than expected pace since the beginning of this year and is expected to develop into a "long-term investor".

The Shanghai Securities News quoted an unnamed private equity partnership report with a scale of hundreds of billions, indicating that the new issuance scale of quantitative private equity funds has generally exceeded 1 billion RMB this year, with an average of over 3 billion RMB for the hundred billion level private equity funds. The management scale of the quantitative private equity industry has experienced rapid expansion. Several founders of quantitative private equity funds have stated that the proportion of quantitative trading in the total market trading volume has now exceeded 20%. Many quantitative private equity professionals believe that, following the development path of mature overseas markets, the proportion of institutional investors in Chinese capital markets will gradually increase, leading to the continuous optimization of pricing efficiency and a decrease in the effectiveness of quantitative factors, while the effectiveness of fundamental factors will significantly increase. In the future, quantitative private equity funds are expected to gradually become long-term investors in the market through strategy transformation and optimization.
