About

Founded in 2012, Giant Steps Capital (Giant Steps) is a Sao Paolo-based hedge fund manager that focuses on systematizing the investment process through the utilization of mathematical models. It seeks to bring together mathematical Olympiad champions and PhDs to the financial markets. Its investment process is automated, utilizing models created by the firm with the aim of capturing fluctuations and generate gains independently of the market's direction. Giant Steps arranges its portfolios for 2 types of situations in the financial markets: moments of rationality and irrationality, aiming to generate returns when there is euphoria in the market as well as panic. Even though its main pillar is the utilization of quantitative models, there is a significant human element in the firm's investment process as portfolio managers have the discretion to make necessary adjustments.
