All of their strategies incorporate a disciplined investment process and sophisticated risk management which builds on the research expertise and global resources and alternative asset management expertise of Deutsche Bank to leverage first-hand, real-time insight from a global research engine that links analysts and investment professionals worldwide.The firm's Discretionary Portfolio Management service is tailored to individual clients and is based on a disciplined investment process, a dynamic approach to investment decision making and effective risk management. Their investment process is run by the Wealth Management Global Investment Committee, which creates a formal asset allocation and offers advice on risk management and active FX hedging.The DeAMI investment process is centered around three \"pillars\": assembling expert judgment; analyzing asset price drivers and identifying fundamental changes to the investment regime. In this process, the individual GIC members independently provide their views, which, when aggregated, leads to reducing portfolio volatility. They employ a bottom-up analysis of the current situation, evaluating macroeconomic data, asset valuations and technical market factors and throughout the process, attempt to identify fundamental changes to the investment regime so they can react accordingly.The GIC utilizes quantitative analysis to consider three ways of managing risk in a portfolio: asset allocation \"risk tuning\", conditional risk management (through hedging) and unconditional risk management, which deals with major, one-off tail risks.
