About Me

Mario Montoya
During the first half of my career as a derivative strategies portfolio manager, I gained great appreciation for the value of macro asset allocation decisions as well as the value of the broad array of tools available to implement decisions. Relentless focus on finding the lowest cost method to achieve an exposure has been a guiding principle in my investment career. The second half of my career was spent at a prestigious quantitative hedge fund which taught me the value of systematizing investment decisions. Cost minimization was again a prime focus. In addition to macro and derivative strategies, I have experience in Merger Arbitrage.
