Trust is difficult to build in financial markets because investors are being asked to make decisions about future outcomes using information about the past.
For an algorithmic trading firm such as Vincere Portfolios, that challenge makes transparency especially important: prospective clients need to understand not only what a strategy has done historically, but also how the business and technology behind it operate.
That challenge becomes even more pronounced with algorithmic trading. The underlying decisions are generated by mathematical rules and software rather than by a person making visible trades. For a prospective investor, it can therefore be difficult to understand what is happening behind the scenes unless the trading firm makes its process clear.
