Nickel Digital Asset Management, a London-based investment manager offering digital asset strategy solutions for institutional investors, has allocated over $100m to quantitative systematic crypto traders through its diversified alpha fund.
The fund employs a managed account structure to provide funding to an actively expanding global community of quant digital asset managers while allowing allocators to maintain tight risk oversight of their funds. According to a press statement, this structure facilitates trading on leading spot and derivative exchanges while “leveraging Nickel’s advanced trade execution platform”.
Allocators to Nickel have earned an estimated 50% (net) since the fund’s inception in 2021, and 18% (net) year-to-date.
Nickel says its model provides fund managers with “unmatched independence and benefits”, which include a performance fee structure and control over trading strategies within defined risk limits and capital allocations.
Having allocated resources to over 20 managers, Nickel is actively engaged in further selection of systematic managers to scale up its teams.
