Alessandro Pafumi

With a profound background in algorithmic trading and financial mathematics, Alessandro recognized that the most sophisticated investment tools were often locked behind the closed doors of major hedge funds. He founded Heracles to democratize access to high-performance quantitative alpha.

"Transparency is not just a feature; it is our foundation." This philosophy drives Alessandro's approach. By combining rigorous data analysis with a commitment to clarity, he ensures that partners understand not just the 'what', but the 'why' behind every trade.

Under his leadership, Heracles has developed a suite of adaptive volatility strategies that thrive in changing market conditions, consistently aiming for uncorrelated returns that protect and grow wealth regardless of market direction.

When not analyzing market microstructure or coding new execution algorithms, Alessandro is dedicated to mentoring the next generation of quants and fostering a community of informed, data-driven investors.
