About Tartigrade Ltd.

Tartigrade is a private family office that utilizes advanced mathematical models and various hardware & software technologies (C#, VBA, SQL, PowerBI, Excel etc.) to identify arbitrage, volatility as an asset class, and convex return opportunities in organized financial markets. We build investment products that assist and advise investors and corporations to hedge against systemic market risks and to add convexity for their existing asset portfolio. The founders are graduates from McGill University in chemical engineering and have a combined experience of 40 years in engineering, derivative trading, private equity and finance. Our company is proudly named after a micro-animal ‘Tardigrade’, because of its resilience and its ability to survive extreme conditions that would normally kill off other existing life forms on earth. It is fitting for our company's motto since we design investment strategies that not only survive in normal conditions but thrive in extreme market conditions. While studying the etymology of the word tardigrade, we felt uneasy about the prefix tardi, as it means "late" or "slow" in Italian. With just a swap of letters replacing the d with t, we chose to settle for Tar"t"igrade LTD, while preserving its original meaning. We surely share many of the animal's fine features, but slow is not one of them. At Tartigrade, long-term and enduring success is founded based on our talented people who define our culture, live our values and achieve our purposes.
