Recently thought leadership publication Dimple. interviewed FundSeeder’s founders and subsequently ran a story about our vision. A link to the full article follows below, excerpted from “FundSeeder Is Looking For The Best Traders In The World”:
“When the average person thinks of the stock market, they think of Wall Street with its fast-paced trading floors full of men and women staring at their Bloomberg Terminals. This vision is enforced by a high barrier of entry to the industry, where a small group of less than 700 hedge fund managers control 90% of the hedge fund market, a $3 trillion industry.
Sensing an opportunity, the founders of FundSeeder have developed a technology that opens this market up to new money managers from outside this small circle of established traders. With advancements in data and analytics technologies, these founders believed that new traders should have better access to the information that they need to grow and advance in the industry.
Emanuel Balarie, who founded FundSeeder along with Jack Schwager and James Bibbings, says they “came together on a core belief that some of the world’s best traders, money managers, however you want to really call it, are undiscovered.”
