26_03_Artwork_PAM_PodcastBanner_800x450 1 (1)

Welcome to the first episode of Inside the Markets podcast from Progeny Asset Management. We’re focusing on how systematic investing has evolved – from its origins as a highly specialised, quant‑driven approach into something far more accessible and widely used today.

What was once a niche part of the market has become a genuinely distinct investment style, sitting alongside active and purely passive approaches. It’s now a meaningful component of mainstream portfolio construction, with advisers increasingly using systematic strategies in thoughtful and deliberate ways.

We’ll unpack how that evolution has taken shape, why it matters for investors, and how these approaches can play a role in diversified portfolios across different market environments.
