The firm takes pride in having a math driven ethos that specializes in leveraging an in-depth knowledge of volatility skew while applying a discretionary twist to quantitative volatility strategies.
We talk about Kris's background working different prop desks at banks. How Kris believes that the market microstructure has evolved and changed since 2017.
