Forecasting Models
Equity analysts and specialist dividend forecasting services build various types of models, which use algorithms.
Algorithm development
Algorithms may start by codifying the process and analytics applied by a typical discretionary analyst. ULTUMUS divCAST’s partner, Woodseer, forecast dividends manually between 2011 and 2016, and this formed the foundation for building algorithms that now provide the base case forecasts, with human discretion entering the process mainly in special cases.
Predictive Analytics
Algorithms, models and discretionary manual analytics, are all designed to accurately predict the timing and amount of dividend payments.
