Unravel's Team & Mission

Mission

Evaluating thousands of predictive factors is a complex and challenging task, requiring years of dedicated research, infrastructure investment and a team of experts. This makes using alternative data & exogenous risk factors unaccessible for most asset managers, funds and family offices.

Unravel is an investment research platform designed to address this gap by surfacing the exogenous predictive risk factors that matter most for any asset.

Our public and proprietary research provides unprecedented transparency to make:

  • The most volatile and risky assets investable
  • Portfolios more resilient by exposing their vulnerability to exogenous risk factors
  • Quantitative strategies easier to implement and deploy with model portfolios and expert guidance

Leadership Team

Unravel is built by a team of experienced quantitative analysts, software engineers and data scientists. We're pragmatists, committed to delivering results that are testable, repeatable, and transparent.

Origin Story

In 2020, Mark exited his previous company, and started his family office, where using this technical and statistical expertise, he deployed a wide range of quantitative (cross-sectional, long/short) strategies across all asset classes with a small team of quants.

At the same time, Daniel & Mark started working together building infrastructure and data pipelines that will enable the evaluation of thousands of predictive factors, with the goal to uncover the hidden predictive relationships that drive asset returns.

Unravel is a manifestation of our passion for research and our belief that exogenous predictive factors will become a key ingredient for both discretionary and quantiative investing in the future.

Unravel was launched in 2025.
