Acadian Asset Management LLC (or simply Acadian) is an American investment management firm headquartered in Boston with additional offices in London, Singapore and Sydney.[1] The firm is noted for its usage of Quantitative analysis and strategies when making investment decisions.[1][3][4][5][6]

Background

The firm's predecessor, Acadian Financial Research, was founded in 1977 by Gary Bergstrom.[1][7] It managed investment strategies for the State Street Corporation.[1] In 1986, Acadian Asset Management was founded by Bergstrom, John Chisholm, Churchill Franklin, Ron Frashure to manage assets independently.[1][8] The firm's name comes from the region, Acadia.[9]

Acadian is an active manager and relies on fields such as artificial intelligence and data science to supplement its decision making process.[1][3][4][5][6][10]

In 1992, Acadian was acquired by United Asset Management.[11] In 2000, Acadian became a subsidiary of Old Mutual after Old Mutual acquired United Asset Management.[9][7][12]

In 2009, Acadian laid off 8% of its workforce due to volatile market conditions related to the Financial crisis of 2007–2008.[13]

In March 2017, Acadian partnered with Microsoft to use its Bing predicts big data technology to support its investment decision making process.[14] However only several months later, it ended its partnership stating it had not found a way to turn social media data into useful signals for investments.[15]

In 2018, the direct parent of Acadian, Old Mutual Asset Management separated from Old Mutual and was rebranded to BrightSphere Investment Group.[2][16]

Acadian claims to be the first quantitative fund to sign the Principles for Responsible Investment in 2009.[17]
