At Nickel Digital Asset Management we are offering institutional investors secure, efficient and transparent access to growth opportunities in the digital asset market. This unique market delivers uncorrelated returns, hence improving the diversification of institutional portfolios. Nickel was founded by fixed income arbitrage and investment management veterans who brought multiyear experience from major Wall Street banks, including Bankers Trust, Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan, and Deutsche Bank, as well as a number of multi-billion hedge funds. This experience is complemented by academic background in mathematics, econometrics and engineering with degrees from Wharton, LSE, and the University of Oxford. The Firm manages assets for institutional investors using market-neutral arbitrage strategies, exploiting volatility swings, market inefficiencies and price dislocations. We are targeting consistent absolute returns within a strictly-defined risk framework. We believe that through portfolio diversification, this new asset class is able to significantly improve the efficient frontier of underlying portfolios.
