Leveraging Alternative Data for high-value insights.

Financial services firms including banks, hedge funds and large asset management firms are gorging on “Alternative Data” for high-value insights into the COVID Economy. Funds are collecting and crunching alternative data generated by public websites, credit card transactions, satellite images of parking lots, customer reviews, and more non-traditional data sources. Those funds which fail to adopt successful alternative data strategies will be left behind.

Join Quandl’s co-Founder and CDO Abraham Thomas and Caserta’s founding CEO Joe Caserta for an insightful live webinar to dive into the world of Alternative Data for financial services firms. The live presentations will be enjoyable for both a business and technical audience.

In this 50-minute webinar you’ll learn:
  • What is alternative data, how it is being used and current trends
  • Challenges of incorporating alternative data
  • Using Alternative Data with Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence
  • Introduction to one of Quandl’s most useful data products given the economic climate
  • How this data product came to be
  • Real-world Case studies showcasing its predictive power
