Alpha-I, which researches and develops quantitative investment strategies, has launched via the Lawson Conner platform. 

Alpha-I is currently growing its technical team and validating its trading strategies. 
 
The global hedge fund industry holds more than USD3 trillion in assets. Roughly one in five hedge funds actively employ algorithmic trading strategies. Of these, only few funds employ cutting edge machine learning algorithms and high-dimensional correlations.
 
Alpha-I is founded by Giacomo Mariotti (pictured) and Dr Sreekumar Thaithara Balan. 
 
“Lawson Conner is thrilled to be working with Alpha-I,” says Andrew Frost, director, investment management solutions, Lawson Conner. “In a rapidly evolving financial services industry, working with a company with ambitions to provide the fund industry with professional, modern and technological processes that allow it to adapt to current technological advances are precisely the kind of partnerships Lawson Conner strives to create.”
