OI25: What If Lower Volatility Is the Wrong Goal ft. Suhaimi Zainul-Abidin

Moritz Seibert is joined by QuantEdge CEO Suhaimi Zainul-Abidin to explore how one of Singapore’s most successful systematic firms approaches risk, diversification and long-term compounding. Suhaimi explains why QuantEdge deliberately runs at a much higher volatility than most institutional portfolios, how the firm combines hundreds of independent risk premia across equities, bonds, commodities and insurance-linked securities, and why diversification should create room to take more risk rather than simply reduce it. They also discuss capacity, investor lockups, portfolio rebalancing and the lessons QuantEdge learned from surviving both the Global Financial Crisis and the COVID market shock.-----JOIN THE TREND FOLLOWING MANIFESTO BOOK LAUNCH LIST TO GET SPECIAL LOW PRICE ON OUR UPCOMING BOOK DURING THE FIRST WEEK! - CLICK HERE-----Follow Niels on Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube or via the TTU website.IT’s TRUE ? – most CIO’s read 50+ books each year – get your FREE copy of the Ultimate Guide to the Best Investment Books ever written here.And you can get a free copy of my latest book “Ten Reasons to Add Trend Following to Your Portfolio” here.Learn more about the Trend Barometer here.Send your questions to info@toptradersunplugged.comAnd please share this episode with a like-minded friend and leave an honest Rating & Review on iTunes or Spotify so more people can discover the podcast.Follow Moritz on Twitter.Follow Suhaimi on LinkedIn.Episode TimeStamps:03:07 - How QuantEdge grew from $3 million to nearly $8 billion07:29 - Why QuantEdge doesn’t fit neatly into the CTA bucket09:10 - How risk premia create returns across markets11:20 - Systematically investing in insurance-linked securities15:18 - Building a portfolio from hundreds of independent bets20:32 - Why QuantEdge targets around 25% volatility25:24 - Where the firm’s returns have actually come from27:06 - How the strategy evolved from 50 markets to nearly 30029:34 - How much capital can QuantEdge realistically manage?32:46 - Why the firm refuses to dilute its strategy for investors37:11 - Why long lockups can actually protect investors46:33 - The toughest periods in QuantEdge’s 20-year historyCopyright © 2026 – CMC AG – All Rights Reserved----PLUS: Whenever you're ready... here are 3 ways I can help you in your investment Journey:1. eBooks that cover key topics that you need to know about In my eBooks, I put together some key discoveries and things I have learnt during the more than 3 decades I have worked in the Trend Following industry, which I hope you will find useful.
