Hi and welcome to Quant Investing!
Our only goal here at Quant Investing is to help you increase your investment returns.
We do this through our stock screener and newsletter services.

Learn from his mistakes
When Tim started investing in 1987 he made every investment mistake you can think of until he realised that there must be good research and books about what has worked in investing.
Not in the short term but over long periods of time in up and down markets.
Since then he has done just that. Reading and studying every article, research paper and book he could find to help him improve his investment performance.
Something he still does, and that is where we can help you, to not make the mistakes he has made and to benefit from his on going research.
Tim did not try to learn all about investment on his own. Before starting Quant Investing he spent more than 16 years working in banking and fund management in South Africa and Germany.
Could not find a screener he liked
After leaving banking in 2012 he could not find a stock screener that met his needs in terms of the number of companies, ratios and indicators to invest his own money so he decided to develop a stock screener and the Quant Investing stock screener was born.
A team of more than eight people
From a small start with just two people we have grown to a team of over eight people. Our goal has however stayed the same, to help individual investors like you increase your returns.
A stock screener built by investors for investors
The screener is not just something we sell it is a tool we use every day to invest our own money. It is a screener built by investors for investors.
We do not want to build a huge business but something that can REALLY help private investors like you get higher returns.
Because we also want to increase our returns we read, test and write about new strategies and ideas we find all the time.
You can read everything in our blog which is free, simply click on the following link: Quant Investing Blog
If we find an idea or investment strategy that REALLY works (we test most strategies again) we immediately include all the ratios and indicators you need to implement it in the stock screener.
You can find a summary of all the best investment strategies we have tested here: Best investment strategies we have tested.
That is the reason why the screener already has over 110 ratios and indicators you can use to find investment ideas.
You can find out more about the screener by clicking on the following link: more information about the Quant Investing screener
