AQR Capital Management (AQR) has established an office in Frankfurt, Germany.
“We are excited to open our Frankfurt office and broaden our footprint in Europe,” says David G Kabiller, Co-Founder and Head of Business Development at AQR. “We believe that a local presence will allow us to better serve our existing German clients and deliver our diverse platform of quantitative strategies to investors.”
AQR’s expansion into Germany is supported by a dedicated local team led by Axel Weiss, PhD, Managing Director and Head of Germany and Austria Business Development. AQR’s German team will collaborate closely with its London office to augment AQR’s European presence.
“We are eager to deepen our relationships with our German clients and further engage the region’s sophisticated investment community,” says Christopher Palazzolo, Principal and Head of EMEA at AQR.
The Federal Financial Supervisory Authority (BaFin) has approved AQR to conduct investment business.
