Premialab and BlackRock Aladdin Team Up to Boost QIS Access

Premialab, described as the leading independent platform for quantitative investment strategies, and BlackRock's Aladdin risk management system announced a partnership aimed at accelerating adoption of quantitative investment strategies, known as QIS, among institutional investors. The collaboration was announced November 2, 2026, from New York and London.

The integration combines Aladdin Risk's portfolio analytics infrastructure with Premialab's QIS data ecosystem, allowing institutional investors to evaluate and manage QIS exposures within the same framework they use for the rest of their holdings. The pairing addresses a longstanding gap for large allocators who have historically struggled to incorporate systematic, rules-based strategies into unified portfolio oversight tools.
