Jinheng Quantitative Asset Management Limited is a Hong Kong company focused on AI quantitative research, asset management and blockchain technology development.
We are interested in turning financial questions into research that can be analysed and tested. Data preparation, model research and system design provide a structured basis for that work.
From a research hypothesis to a portfolio analysis framework or a supporting software system, a clearly defined question—and an understanding of its limits—is the starting point.
Research to understand data. Risk analysis to examine assets. Engineering to explore practical applications.

Explore this area01 / AI QUANTITATIVE RESEARCH
Useful quantitative research begins with an understanding of the question and the data. Areas of interest include preparing information from different sources, exploring relationships between variables and evaluating models under different conditions.
Historical data provides a basis for observation, with limitations of its own. Research needs to distinguish data used to develop a model from data used to evaluate it, while considering transaction costs, data bias and changing market conditions.
AREAS OF INTEREST
Examine sources, time alignment, missing values and outliers, and explore variables that help describe market behaviour.
Start from a clear hypothesis, compare statistical and machine learning approaches, and consider the conditions in which each may be useful.
Examine results across periods, parameters and scenarios, with attention to overfitting and out-of-sample performance.
02 / ASSET MANAGEMENT
Asset management brings together objectives, time horizons, liquidity and risk. Quantitative analysis offers a structured way to examine the roles that different assets play within a portfolio.
Our focus includes portfolio research and analysis: allocation approaches, risk distribution, correlations and changing scenarios. Alongside individual measures, it is necessary to understand their assumptions and the scope of the underlying data.
AREAS OF INTEREST
Compare allocation approaches in the context of time horizons, liquidity needs and relationships between asset classes.
Examine volatility, drawdowns, concentration and correlations to understand different sources of portfolio risk.
Consider how changes in market conditions may affect a portfolio, with a framework for continued observation and reassessment.
03 / BLOCKCHAIN DEVELOPMENT
Blockchain development starts with practical questions: what problem should the system solve, what information needs to be recorded, who can access or update it, and how should it connect to existing workflows?
Our technical focus includes system architecture, smart contract logic and application integration. Design needs to consider traceability, permissions, privacy, operating costs and ongoing maintenance together.
AREAS OF INTEREST
Explore data flows, state changes, access controls and the division of responsibilities between on-chain and off-chain systems.
Define business rules, trigger conditions and exceptions, with attention to testing and understandable contract behaviour.
Consider how blockchain data connects to software interfaces, databases and business processes, including usability and maintenance.
A clear framework helps research, analysis and development work towards the same objective.
Clarify the objective, context and constraints. Distinguish the question to be answered from the system to be built.
Examine data sources and quality, record key assumptions, and make the scope of the evidence clear.
Use model comparisons, scenario analysis or system testing to assess how well an approach addresses the original question.
Document findings and limitations, revisit assumptions, and use the results to inform the next stage of research or development.
OUR PRINCIPLES
The source, timing and definition of data shape the questions an analysis can answer.
Models, assets and systems have different limitations that need to be understood in context.
Technical choices should address practical needs and account for long-term use and maintenance.

AI QUANTITATIVE RESEARCH
Two Sigma
Two Sigma describes a process spanning data preparation, modelling, portfolio construction and execution. Its research uses quantitative methods and techniques such as natural language processing across different types of data.
This example illustrates the connections between data preparation, model analysis and portfolio decisions.
ASSET MANAGEMENT & RISK
BlackRock · Aladdin Risk
Aladdin Risk brings together analytics across asset classes. Exposures, scenario analysis and stress testing help evaluate how a portfolio may respond to different market conditions.
This example illustrates the role of consistent analytics and scenario comparisons in portfolio research.
BLOCKCHAIN TECHNOLOGY
J.P. Morgan · Kinexys
Kinexys Digital Payments uses a permissioned blockchain as a payment rail and deposit ledger, supporting fund transfers and corporate liquidity management use cases.
This example shows how blockchain applications can be designed around records, participant permissions and existing financial workflows.
The company’s business directions are AI quantitative research, asset management and blockchain technology development. They address data and models, assets and risk, and software and system design respectively.
AI can help explore relationships in data, develop research models and compare approaches. Results still need to be understood in the context of data quality, model assumptions and suitable conditions, and remain subject to evaluation.
A backtest simulates historical conditions using particular data and assumptions. Its evaluation needs to consider data bias, transaction costs, parameter choices and out-of-sample performance. Historical results do not guarantee future performance.
Quantitative research can provide tools for allocation, portfolio observation and risk analysis. Asset management also needs to consider objectives, time horizons, liquidity and other specific conditions; a single model or measure cannot capture all of these.
They are different activities. Blockchain development involves system architecture, smart contracts, data records and software integration. Its technical uses depend on the requirements of a particular project.
Blockchain may be worth exploring when multiple parties need shared records, consistent state or a traceable history of actions. Technology selection should also consider conventional databases, alongside access permissions, privacy, processing speed and maintenance costs.

Useful starting information includes the business problem, intended users, current workflow, available data and the area that needs improvement. System constraints, an indicative timeline and criteria for judging whether an outcome is useful help establish a clear scope.
