Company Information
AlphaGrep is a quantitative trading firm founded in 2010. Majority of our revenues come from proprietary trading, but we have also incorporated a quantitative asset management business in 2021 (with funds in Singapore, China and India) that is growing rapidly.
We are one of the largest firms by trading volume on Indian exchanges and have significant market share on several large global exchanges as well. We use a disciplined and systematic quantitative approach to identify factors that consistently generate alpha. These factors are then coupled with our proprietary ultra-low latency trading systems and robust risk management to develop trading strategies across asset classes (equities, commodities, currencies, fixed income) that trade on global exchanges.
