Why New York

New York holds the largest concentration of proprietary trading desks in the United States outside Chicago, and the balance of what they trade is different. Proximity to the NYSE and Nasdaq pulls the city toward equities, ETFs and increasingly credit, where Chicago remains a listed-derivatives town. Several of the largest quantitative firms of the last two decades were founded here rather than in Chicago, and the city is also where the majority of US quant research hiring sits.
