About The Firm
AlphaQuest is a research-driven, alternative asset management firm headquartered in New York City with $2.3 billion in assets under management, focused on delivering truly uncorrelated investment strategies at the intersection of mathematics, data science and investing. Founded in 2001 by chief investment officer Nigol Koulajian, the firm manages assets on behalf of some of the world’s largest institutional investors. Through our collaborative approach to research, our team combines our values – intellectual humility, transparent collaboration, rapid prototyping and knowledge continuity – to improve our understanding of Alpha and tail risk, in an effort to develop quantitative investment strategies that benefit from short-term expansions in volatility and crowding, as well as longer-term shifts in the market regime. We continue to research and further broaden the application of our 25+ years of experience in measuring and capturing breakouts and breakdowns across global markets – to other asset classes, factors, investment strategies, and time frames. This includes novel ways to source convexity within futures and FX, individual equities, alternative markets, and other well-established systematic investment strategies. This research evolution has taken place while remaining faithful to one of our founding principles of delivering strong absolute returns that exhibit positive skew (right-tails).
