Our history

Cap's group began as a focused research entity, dedicated to exploring systematic trading strategies in quantitative finance. The initial years were characterised by intensive development of proprietary trading models, with a heavy emphasis on statistical rigor and backtesting.

The team concentrated on identifying market inefficiencies and building robust, scalable algorithms across various asset classes, laying the groundwork for future expansion into a full-scale financial services provider.

The core focus during this phase was not on massive growth but on establishing an intellectual edge. Significant resources were devoted to building out a proprietary technological infrastructure. This early success reinforced the conviction that original, dedicated research could yield a substantial competitive advantage in the capital markets.

The group achieved its first significant milestone by developing a unique approach to risk management that focused on dynamic position sizing and capital preservation.

Cap's group grew into a significant financial services operator during these years, forming longstanding partnerships with investors and broadening its client base.

We expanded our global footprint with offices in Monaco and France. To satisfy demand from a growing variety of clients, we launched our strategies in a wide range of structures around the world.

Research remained the focus as we added to our headcount and expanded into new strategies, instruments and vehicles. Our risk management innovations during these years proved especially important in the decade that followed.

We added new strategies to our investment programmes, as we sought out more consistent returns. To broaden our capabilities, we added complementary talent to our research team, and our investment universe was built out to include a wider range of markets and instruments.

With profits from Cap's payment guarantee solutions, we expanded our asset management activities and grew our global footprint in Denmark and the United Kingdom.

Our overarching business strategy has been a constant since our group was founded in 2011: to seek out industry-leading returns through a consistent focus on research and development.

We continue to commit considerable time and energy to original research, to the development of new strategies, and to seeking out other innovations that can improve returns for our clients.
