Quantero Capital
Quantero Capital is a boutique systematic investment manager focused on disciplined, statistics-based trading across highly liquid global markets. We combine modern quantitative research, defined-risk derivatives, and personalized client attention to protect and grow capital with clarity and precision.
Quantero Capital was founded on a simple belief:
in an unpredictable world, discipline is the only real advantage.
We operate with the philosophy that long-term success comes from:
data-driven decisions
systematic execution
strict risk control
alignment with clients
and a deep commitment to transparency
We are intentionally boutique — allowing us to maintain agility, precision, and high-attention oversight for every client.
Quantero is not a mass-market manager — we are selective, focused, and aligned with our clients’ long-term goals.
Discipline Over Prediction
Markets are unpredictable.
Our edge is not forecasting — it’s preparation, structure, and probability.
We believe:
Consistency beats conviction
Risk comes first, returns follow
Data wins over emotion
Transparency builds trust
Agility is a competitive edge
Boutique focus delivers better outcomes
This philosophy shapes every decision we make.
Leo Lissin — Founder & Chief Investment Officer
Leo has been involved in financial markets for over 15 years, developing deep experience in equities, options, derivatives, and systematic trading. His background blends finance, entrepreneurship, quantitative research, fintech systems development, and real-world leadership — a combination that shaped the disciplined, modern philosophy behind Quantero Capital.
Leo began his journey through active day trading and short-term derivatives strategies, which led him to pursue structured approaches to risk, probability modeling, and algorithmic execution. Over more than a decade of refining his craft, he developed a systematic framework built on trend dynamics, mean reversion, volatility analysis, and defined-risk derivatives — the foundation of Quantero’s investment process today.
Before founding Quantero Capital, Leo built and led multiple companies in the fintech, automation, and digital systems arena, where he managed global teams and developed efficient, technology-driven business models. His entrepreneurial work included creating automated systems, operational frameworks, client platforms, and digital infrastructures — experience that directly enhances Quantero’s research, execution, risk management, and operational oversight.
Leo also founded ConquerFX, a proprietary trading firm designed to train and develop disciplined traders through structured evaluation programs. This venture emphasized risk control, behavioral discipline, and repeatable strategy design — all of which reinforced his shift from traditional discretionary trading into a fully systematic, rules-driven investment approach.
Leo’s academic background includes a Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration with a Major in Finance, supported by specialized training such as:
Investment Management Specialization, University of Geneva
Algorithmic & Quantitative Trading Coursework, University of Oxford
Advanced education in financial markets, options, and derivatives via professional trading programs
These programs strengthened his expertise in quantitative structure, asset pricing, and systematic execution.
Beyond finance, Leo brings high-level discipline, leadership, and decision-making ability from his time in the Israel Defense Forces, where he served as a Counter-Terror Instructor in a Special Forces unit. This background contributes to the calm, structured, and rigorous mindset that defines Quantero’s investment philosophy: clarity under pressure, disciplined execution, and consistency above everything else.
As Founder & CIO, Leo leads Quantero Capital’s:
quantitative research & statistical modeling
risk framework development
derivatives structuring
multi-market strategy design
portfolio execution
tactical and long-term performance management
Leo invests his own capital alongside clients, ensuring full alignment, transparency, and long-term commitment to Quantero’s mission: protecting capital, capturing opportunity, and compounding results through disciplined, systematic investing.
