About Old Mission Capital
Old Mission Capital is a quantitative market-making firm founded in 2008. It prices “thousands of financial instruments globally” and has “traded trillions of dollars of securities using proprietary systems and models, both on and off exchange”, with a particular reputation in ETFs and listed options.
The firm makes markets for exchanges, brokers and institutional investors, facilitating risk transfer across a wide range of securities. It attributes its pricing to “proprietary technology, sophisticated quantitative techniques, and unique ability to manage diverse portfolio of risks”, quoting both on-exchange and in the off-exchange block market.
Old Mission is privately held, which it says allows it to respond quickly to changing market conditions and client needs. The firm has “assembled an extraordinary team of technologists, traders, and operations specialists dedicated to improving the way markets work” across its Chicago, New York, London and Singapore offices.
