Cornell Financial Engineering Manhattan’s 2022 Future Of Finance Conference Speaker Profile: Richard Craib Founder & CEO Numerai
Richard Craib is the Founder and CEO of Numerai, a market neutral quant hedge fund built on thousands of crowdsourced machine learning models.
Richard graduated with a degree in pure mathematics from Cornell University. Previously, he built a global equity fund powered by machine learning at $15 billion asset manager, Prudential (M&G).
In October 2015, Richard founded Numerai in San Francisco to build a new kind of hedge fund where data scientists around the world collaborate to predict equity returns using artificial intelligence.
Numerai runs a weekly data science tournament at https://numer.ai. Data scientists from around the world with varying backgrounds can download our clean, obfuscated data for free, build a model and submit to predict the stock market. Because it’s obfuscated data, you don’t have to know anything about finance to participate.
The best predictions are incorporated into a meta model which we use to create the portfolio that informs the trades of our global equity hedge fund. Learn more about the Numerai meta model https://youtu.be/dhJnt0N497c
