DeepSeek effect? How China’s quant funds thrive amid tight regulatory scrutiny
China’s quantitative investing sector has produced 18 funds managing more than 10 billion yuan (US$1.5 billion) in assets each so far this year, underlining the industry’s ability to generate competitive returns despite a tight regulatory environment.
The firms are among 159 Chinese hedge funds overseeing more than 10 billion yuan in assets each, riding the technology-driven momentum in the world’s second-largest stock market.
