Rokos Capital Management

Rokos Capital Management was founded in 2015 by Chris Rokos, a former founding partner and macro trader at Brevan Howard. The firm began trading as a new London hedge fund in 2015 and has since developed into a sizeable global macro specialist.

RCM trades macro themes across currencies, interest rates, equities and commodities, using discretionary investment decisions informed by broad economic and market developments. It is an investment-management firm rather than a bank or diversified asset manager, so its core activity is concentrated around research, trading, portfolio construction and risk management.

The firm is particularly associated with large-scale discretionary macro trading and has attracted substantial capital while maintaining a relatively low public profile. Its scale and specialist mandate make it a relevant target for students interested in macro research, trading and markets-focused quantitative or technology roles.
