The Global AdvantageFunds are managed by State Street Global Advisors (SSgA), the investment management arm of State Street Corporation. SSgA is one of the largest institutional fund management companies in the world.
Its indexing heritage and innovative tools have contributed to explosive growth since inception in 1978. Continued focus on client needs and their demand for new products has spurred the creation of a full spectrum of investment solutions and an impressive list of industry firsts.
During the latter half of the 1990’s, SSgA established the Advanced Research Center (ARC), bringing together scientific method, academic theory, computational power and years of industry experience. The ARC set out to add additional rigor to the quantitative research at SSgA, as well as provide research and insights to its
clients.
SSgA was awarded the first-of-its-kind patent for stock selection using non-linear estimation. Today, there are ARC members in the US, Europe, Japan, and Australia.
