Quantitative Management (QM) is a technique founded on over 30 years of portfolio management research. The many theories involved in portfolio management‚ of which Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) is the most widely-known‚ have led to a wide range of investor behaviour models. Each model aims to predict future market movements and measure the risks associated with them. These risks can be analysed according to potential returns‚ thus providing a risk management tool. Although the development

The results are then acted upon for decision making. During World War II‚ mathematicians‚ physicists‚ and other scientists joined together to solve military problems. The quantitative school of management is a result of the research conducted during World War II. The quantitative approachto management involves the use of quantitative
