Newly expanding hedge fund group seeks a locally experienced senior trader plus 2-4 key analyst modelers to build a strong statistical arbitrage book that can best reflect local Asia market parameters. This major US$10mm+ AUM group will fully support any team with a strong capital base of US$250mm in initial capital and then increase it to US$1bn or more depending on the new team's initial success. Top academic backgrounds, true "rocket scientists" will be encouraged to apply. All nationalities are welcome if they have a direct knowledge of local Asia pacific market experiences. Australia, Japan, Asia, China and India are all of interest. This is a quant team's dream to be fully independent and financially clear on any p/l payout formula.
