A&Q
A&Q, short for Alternative and Quantitative Investments, is the hedge fund solutions and fund-of-funds platform of UBS Asset Management. Operating through UBS Alternative and Quantitative Investments LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly owned subsidiary of UBS AG, the platform is registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission as an investment adviser. A&Q has a long history of providing institutional and high-net-worth investors with access to diversified portfolios of alternative investment managers, drawing on the global resources and deep research capabilities of one of the world's largest financial institutions.
The A&Q platform specializes in building multi-manager alternative investment portfolios, offering investors access to hedge funds and alternative strategies across equity long/short, fixed income, trading, and other alternative approaches. Investments are made through commingled fund-of-funds structures and separately managed accounts tailored to specific client mandates. The team's investment process involves rigorous manager selection, ongoing due diligence, portfolio construction, and risk oversight, ensuring that allocations are aligned with each client's risk tolerance and return objectives across varying market environments.
With UBS's extensive global network and institutional infrastructure behind it, A&Q offers institutional investors and high-net-worth clients access to alternative investment managers and strategies that may otherwise be difficult to access on a stand-alone basis. The platform benefits from UBS's proprietary research, technology, and compliance infrastructure, enabling a disciplined and scalable approach to alternative asset allocation. A&Q's funds have served a diverse global investor base, and its ongoing product development reflects the platform's commitment to delivering differentiated investment solutions within the broader alternative investments landscape.
