Posted on April 8, 2019 by Colin Lambert

A new Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning survey launched by Refinitiv has found that while the use of these techniques is pervasive in the financial community, poor quality data impedes their ability to leverage the advantages.
The survey found that 90% of the c-level executives and data scientists surveyed have already deployed machine learning, while all of the c-level participants said it is core to their business strategy.
On the downside, 43% cite poor quality data as the biggest barrier to adoption followed by a lack of data availability (38%).

NAB Launches 2019 Superannuation FX Hedging Survey

Posted on April 2, 2019 by Colin Lambert

National Australia Bank (NAB) has launched its biennial 2019 Superannuation FX hedging survey, the ninth such survey that seeks to provide detailed analysis of how Australian super funds manage their currency exposures. Australia has the fourth biggest superannuation pool in the world, as at December 2018 assets stood at AUD 2.7 trillion, of which around AUD 1.8 trillion is institutional money, with the balance being in private self-managed funds. The bank says this is the only survey of its kind in Australia thanks to the level of detail it goes into around how asset owners are managing their currency risk.
