Talking point: The two will identify ways to optimize BCI’s portfolio, risk assessment and financial modelling with quantum technologies, as well as improve security standards. The latter has been a focus for BCI for some time. BCI said in its most recent annual report that it is “preparing… to be post-quantum ready, ensuring our data and systems remain secure.” BCI, which manages investments for 32 public sector clients such as pension funds, has $295 billion in gross assets under management, according to its most recent annual report. It has invested in quantum tech previously, backing B.C.-based Photonic Inc. since 2021.
