Castle Ridge Announces Strategic Investment From Canaccord Genuity

The investment will enable Castle Ridge to expand its distribution channel with Canaccord Genuity Wealth Management, which manages over $60 billion in client assets in Canada, the UK & Europe and Australia.

Adrian de Valois-Franklin, CEO of Castle Ridge, stated, “We are thrilled to be backed by an investor with such global reach. Together, we believe Castle Ridge represents the future of asset management. Our proprietary WALLACE AI platform constantly adapts to ever changing financial markets.  WALLACE is the culmination of 20 years of experience of what works, and more importantly, what does not work when trying to apply Machine Learning techniques to the markets.  As a result, we developed a completely new branch of self-evolving Artificial Intelligence called Geno-Synthetic Algorithms.”

Dr. Alex Bogdan, Chief Scientific Officer, added, “Clients will gain access to a truly unique set of uncorrelated investment strategies driven by Castle Ridge’s explainable and transparent AI.  What really sets the system apart is the ability to spot market behavioral patterns that are hidden to human managers and traditional static systematic strategies.”

Castle Ridge is rolling out a full range of investment funds, which includes U.S. and Global Equities, Market Neutral, Macro, Fixed Income, Foreign Exchange and Multi-Strategy. As an example, Castle Ridge’s flagship U.S. Large Cap Alpha strategy (Castle Ridge LP) was ranked #2 of 214 global Equity Long funds tracked by the Barclay Hedge database for net performance in 2018.  Castle Ridge’s investment products are tailored for accredited high-net-worth, family office, institutional, pension plan and sovereign wealth fund clients.
