Verition Fund Management LLC

Overview

Verition Fund Management LLC is a multi-strategy hedge fund management firm based in Greenwich, Connecticut. Founded in October 2008 by Nicholas Maounis, the firm has grown to employ over 500 professionals in investment, risk, and non-investment roles. It was established with a focus on robust risk management to ensure stability and prevent issues similar to those faced by its predecessor, Amaranth Advisors.

The firm operates as a multi-manager hedge fund, aiming to create diversified portfolios that deliver consistent risk-adjusted returns. It identifies unique investment opportunities and maintains a higher ratio of portfolio managers to capital, allowing for numerous smaller investments rather than a few large ones. As of March 2025, the firm has achieved an average annual return of approximately 12.9% since inception, with a portfolio value of about $24.2 billion across 3,721 holdings. The firm has a global presence with offices in New York, London, Singapore, and Dubai.
