Its two decade track record of consistent double digit gains for investors is based on an unstinting dedication to research.<\/p>\n<p>The University of Oxford and Man Group were brought together in 2007 when Man provided the cornerstone funding for the first academic institute dedicated to quantitative finance and co-located it with its own commercial researchers.
