Description:

Founded in 1988 over a small bookstore in downtown New York City, the D. E. Shaw group began with six employees and $28 million in capital and quickly became a pioneer in computational finance. As of September 1, 2021, the D. E. Shaw group had more than $60 billion in investment and committed capital. The firm uses a combination of quantitative and qualitative tools to uncover independent, hard-to-find sources of return across global public and private markets. The firm's systematic strategies run on quantitative and computational techniques developed over 30 years of research and trading.
