Our Team
In an environment strongly influenced by short-term demands, Finalpha believes that the willingness and capacity to take a long-term approach is a distinct competitive advantage.
Since our founding in 2001, this philosophy has led Finalpha to develop deep relationships with prestigious institutional investors across Europe.
We are cognizant that the funds we serve represent the lives, dreams, and futures on which investors and their families depend. Because of this realization, we, and the organizations with whom we work must all commit ourselves to adhering to the fundamental principles of integrity, fairness, transparency and trust.
