A Better Response to Thematic Fatigue

Thesis’s Thematic Intelligence Platform helps index providers build differentiated thematic rotation indices on top of their existing index ecosystem, creating a new, adaptive product designed to retain AUM in-family.

When a single theme cools, our deep-learning analysis helps providers keep assets in-family with a stronger thematic destination.

The Problem

Theme fatigue can lead to AUM leakage.

When a single-theme product weakens, assets often leave the ecosystem or migrate into lower-fee products.

Our Role

An adaptive layer above existing indices.

We analyze existing thematic indices using our deep-learning architecture, then select, weight, and rotate across them to create a composite rotation index for an ETF or other product wrapper.

The Outcome

A stronger in-family product.

The result is a differentiated thematic product designed to attract additional AUM and reduce AUM lost to thematic fatigue.

Why Thesis

A rare combination of thematic index experience, machine learning in index design, and deep-learning-based rotation and risk management.

Thematic Index Experience

Experience building institutional thematic indices and working within the governance and licensing structure around them.

Machine Learning in Index Design

Experience applying machine learning to index design with an emphasis on methodology, documentation, and auditability.

Deep Learning for Rotation and Risk

Experience developing and deploying deep-learning-based rotation and risk-management systems for hard-to-time sleeves, enabling a more adaptive methodology than static weighting, discretionary rotation, or simpler rules-based overlays.
