Mint Tower Capital Management

Mint Tower Capital, established in 2010, is an Amsterdam based investment adviser to the Mint Tower Arbitrage Fund a multi-strategy fund specialized in volatility arbitrage with a long volatility bias. Via a quantitative approach and a qualitative overlay the fund invests almost exclusively via liquid exchange cleared instruments in volatility strategies that span equities, credit and convertible bonds globally. The applied combined strategies provide consistent, uncorrelated, superior risk-adjusted returns throughout the economic cycle while decreasing the overall risk profile of a broader portfolio. Since the start of the fund, this resulted in a yearly positive net return, including the financial markets negative years (eg. 2011 and 2018). The fund's objective is a stable annual net return of approximately >5% over a period of 3-5 years, while focusing on capital preservation.
