The Voleon Group

Machine-learning driven investment management for institutions

Overview

Voleon Group is an investment management firm that uses proprietary machine learning models to predict financial market trends. It serves institutional clients by managing portfolios and charging performance-based fees based on returns. The approach relies on analyzing large data sets with statistical models to uncover patterns that inform investment decisions, rather than relying on human intuition. The company emphasizes scalable, adaptable algorithms and rigorous academic research to manage risk and improve performance. Its goal is to deliver consistent, data-driven investment results for pension funds, endowments, and other large investors.
