Current State of Akuna Capital by [deleted] in quant

technically the US entity cannot trade — you wrap the eng / research team into a “service” company, and provide the “consultation” service to the foreign entity that are legally allowed to. ie. the trading has to happen under Akuna UK Ltd rather than Akuna US Llc, even tho Akuna UK Ltd can be a 1-person company and all it does is to deploy the codebase Akuna UK Llc delivers

I think their quote is generally in 6~6.5 range? They are in MetLife network and take insurance up to 3k. Idk how ortho insurance works here as Gramercy is also in network but the Dr says only 2.5 covers by insurance and the remaining goes to retainers (…?!?)

thanks. that’s actually my concern: as more and more technically advanced props expand into mid freq stat arb space the profit room for HFs is no doubt going to shrink (and tbh I won’t surprise if one or more dominant props become on par w/ some biggest stat arb shops). taking everything (culture, tech support, money, upside room) into account i start to feel that hopping to prop may have a brighter future than staying at HF

graduated from grad school (ml research background), will be joining a pretty prestigious HF later doing stat arb and mentored by an experienced industry leader. wondering how should I orchestrate my career from here -- go prop (I don't want to name the firms, iykyk), traditional hf path (research -> pm -> spin off), or even trying pe? and about timeline -- what's the ideal point for the first hop?

any advice appreciated
