Quantitative trading, in all its forms, is growing. In the last 5 years, AUM at quantitative funds has more than doubled. Global annual data generation has exploded fivefold in that same time. Driven by developments in AI and financial economics, more and more firms are turning to quantitative methods based on these new oceans of data.

The University of Oxford does not have a dedicated quantitative trading society - we are here to change that. Through bringing in key speakers and curating lectures and workshops, we aim to teach the skills and knowledge required to work in this industry.

And soon - in late 2026 - we will be launching the first ever student-run Oxford quantitative live fund. We will be inviting applications for this from early September 2026.
