The only vaccine in use today--BCG (Bacillus Calmette and Guerin)--is an attenuated variant of the bovine TB pathogen. This is more than a hundred years old and has a limited effect on pulmonary tuberculosis, which is mostly responsible for the transmission of the disease.

Sandeep Tandon, CIO, Quant MF, says “if we start looking at risk-adjusted returns, it will be far better. Just looking at PE in isolation without looking at ROC or ROE does not make sense. Similarly, just looking at a few risk measures in isolation does not make sense and that is the reason in our disclosure we have added additional data points also which are risk-adjusted measures and more meaningful rather than just looking at unidirectional risk numbers.” Tandon further says Quant takes concentrated bets because he believes that extraordinary diversification from a mathematical perspective means there is no control on risk. First, let us talk about the stress test. What has been the conclusion at Quant and what has been your finding? Sandeep Tandon: Let me explain the larger thesis. What the regulator wants from us is that we should disclose our liquidity position, our risk-related data points, our concentration in the large, mid, or even concentration from a client perspective. I think it is a good exercise from a larger perspective, more from a transparency point of view.
