OUR STORY
A group of Investment Bankers working in Executive Director positions in JP Morgan and Goldman Sachs with an impeccable track record and an extensive knowledge of Foreign Exchange and structuring realised that investment bankers had sophisticated tools, live market data, and knowledge which gave them an advantage over the most corporate treasury. QuantArt Market Solutions was started in 2012 with a vision to establish a level playing field for both the banks and corporates. They wanted to bring about transparency in operations, quantitative accountability in the assessment of results, excellence in strategy based on proprietary algorithms, proactiveness in response to market movements. The objective was to make the client profit no matter which side the market movements happened.
