Women in Data Science Webinar #1 Olivera Rakic (Entis APG)

Putting data science to work for long-term sustainable investing.
At APG, the largest Dutch pension asset manager, we use data science to address two important needs: making responsible and sustainable investments, and generating excess returns. APG is among investors committed to helping the realization of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, and the first use case describes how we identify sustainable development investments (SDIs) among 10000 global companies. The second use case is about quant equity strategies and the use of data science methods on alternative data.
