Quant Insight Secures Series A Investment from 7RIDGE's Ecosystem Impact Fund to Accelerate Global Expansion of its Macro Factor Risk Models and Analytics Platform to Asset Managers.
The investment will accelerate Quant Insight's global expansion, enhance its unique macro factor risk models, and strengthen its position as the leading provider of macro intelligence for modern investment management.
Solving the Hidden Macro Risk ChallengeQuant Insight addresses a critical gap in portfolio management: the inability to quantify macro exposures that drive over 50% of equity returns during market stress. While traditional risk models focus on equity style factors, macro risks drive returns during market volatility.
'Macro factors increasingly challenge equity investors' ability to generate alpha, yet they remain hard to quantify,' said Mahmood Noorani, CEO of Quant Insight. 'Our platform provides this critical missing piece—quantifiable macro factor intelligence that complements traditional style factor models.'
Strategic Partnership for Fintech Excellence7RIDGE brings exceptional domain expertise with a proven track record scaling enterprise-facing technologies for trading, capital markets, and investment management. The firm's portfolio includes Digital Asset Holdings, Trading Technologies, and Raft Technologies.
'Quant Insight represents exactly the type of transformative technology that makes the global financial system more robust and efficient,' said Carsten Kengeter, CEO of 7RIDGE. 'Quant Insight's macro risk analytics fill a genuine market need with rigorous quantitative methodology. We're excited to leverage our capital markets expertise to help scale their platform globally.'
Proven TechnologyQuant Insight's platform provides three core solutions:
Macro Factor Equity Risk Model (MFERM): Decomposes portfolio returns into explainable macro components and provides clarity on macro exposure
Cross-Asset Valuation Engine: Identifies macro dislocations and fair value gaps across asset classes
Asset Management Solutions: Construction of active ETFs and risk hedging products
The technology covers 13,000+ global assets with API integration and partnerships with leading risk platforms.
Growth and Innovation
The Series A funding will enable global expansion, enhanced platform capabilities with machine learning, scaled operations, and new applications for macro intelligence.

'Law & Order' star Christopher Meloni says he's 'f---ing trying' to get Stabler and Benson to hook up
Hargitay has also said she's into the idea, but she doesn't think it should happen just yet. As much as Law & Order audiences want to see Christopher Meloni's Elliot Stabler and Mariska Hargitay's Olivia Benson get together, Meloni might want it more. After a fan on X suggested Monday that, "for f--- sake, kiss her already," he replied, "I'm f---ing trying." There has long been a will-they-won't-they vibe between the two characters in the beloved franchise. They two were partners for more than a decade on Law & Order: Special Victims Unit, and while Benson has stayed put, Stabler has moved to Law & Order: Organized Crime. However, they still communicate via appearances in one another's departments. They've come very close to becoming a couple, but they haven't actually gone there. Not only Meloni but Hargitay, too, is hoping for that. But she just doesn't want it to happen just yet. "Maybe on the last episode," she said in June on the Call Her Daddy podcast. "I think that's when they should be together... if it's right. We'll see when we get there." The law enforcement officers are "soulmates, in a way," Hargitay said, adding, "But let's see where the story takes us, you know?" Meloni himself has addressed a moment when the two nearly kissed in a season 24 episode of SVU that Stabler appeared on. That time, it was Benson who pulled away."We were attempting something," he said in April during a TVLine Spotlight conversation. "I don't think it worked. But I'm not going to tell you why it didn't work, because you all have your opinion," Meloni said, before adding, "I know what transpired." In May 2024, Hargitay dished that the kiss was initially supposed to happen. "To be honest with you, Chris and I thought it should go one way and the powers that be didn't, so it got changed at the last minute, that near kiss," Hargitay said in a May 2024 interview with Variety. "Obviously [creator] Dick [Wolf] gets final say. It's his show and he didn't want that." While Meloni's Law & Order: Organized Crime wrapped up its fifth season last month, there will be plenty more Benson — and maybe some Stabler references or even encounters? — when L&O: SVU returns for its 27th season Sept. 25 on NBC.

Luis Gil lined up to make season debut Sunday for Yankees after latest Triple-A rehab outing
NEW YORK (AP) — Luis Gil is expected to make his season debut for the New York Yankees on Sunday at Miami after missing four months with a lat strain. The reigning AL Rookie of the Year struck out seven over 4 1/3 innings Tuesday for Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. Gil threw 50 of 75 pitches for strikes, allowing one run and three hits in his fourth minor league rehabilitation start. Injured in spring training, the right-hander is lined up to return this weekend against the Marlins after pitching 14 1/3 innings in the minors. 'I think that's the plan right now,' manager Aaron Boone said before the Yankees beat the Tampa Bay Rays 7-5 on Tuesday night. Gil began facing hitters on June 21, when he threw 20 pitches of live batting practice at Yankee Stadium, and made his first rehab start July 13 for Double-A Somerset. 'I think for the most part, get through it hopefully successfully, and strike-throwing and carrying his stuff throughout the outing,' Boone said. 'You want to see those things, but we're also mindful of it that in a lot of ways it's spring training for him and building up. 'So there's definitely that next level of competitive juices and adrenaline that'll be flowing once he gets back up here.' Gil stopped a bullpen session on Feb. 28 because of tightness in his pitching shoulder. He went to New York for a second MRI that revealed a high-grade lat strain on March 3. He was shut down from throwing for at least six weeks after receiving the original diagnosis, and at the time the Yankees said he would not return until June at the earliest. On April 16, the Yankees said Gil's throwing program would be delayed for about 10 days. The 27-year-old Gil went 15-7 with a 3.50 ERA in 29 starts for the AL East champions last year, striking out 171 and walking a major league-high 77 in 151 2/3 innings. Acquired from the Minnesota Twins in a 2018 trade, Gil made a successful return from Tommy John surgery and threw eight more innings in a pair of postseason starts as the Yankees reached the World Series for the first time since 2009. ___ AP MLB:
