Our Firm

A diversified global leader

Millennium is a global alternative investment management firm, founded in 1989, which manages more than $62 billion in assets. We seek to pursue a diverse array of investment strategies across industry sectors, asset classes, and geographies.

Our four primary strategies are:

  • RV Fundamental Equity

    Our teams perform fundamental research on companies both as generalists and as specialists within a particular sector or sub-sector.

  • Equity Arbitrage

    Our teams pursue a variety of systematic and fundamental arbitrage strategies across different parts of a firm’s capital structure and a variety of derivatives, such as merger arbitrage, event-driven strategies, convertible arbitrage, option-volatility trading, and others.

  • Fixed Income & Commodities

    Our teams manage a number of different strategies including rates, macro, credit, mortgages and asset-backed securities, and commodities.

  • Quantitative Strategies

    Our teams build and enhance investment processes that are primarily quantitatively driven and focused on a variety of asset classes, including global equities, interest rates, foreign exchange instruments, and commodity-linked derivative instruments.

Mission

Driven by independence, sustained by discipline

At Millennium, our mission is clear – to deliver the alternative investment industry’s highest quality returns to our investors while maintaining a commitment to our principles of integrity, discipline, and excellence.

  • Integrity

    We operate with clarity of purpose, striving to maintain alignment with our investors and working with the expectation that our people will conduct themselves with professionalism and respect for our core values.

  • Discipline

    Managing risk is at the core of what we do. We take a measured and thoughtful approach in both our investment and operational activities, pursuing new opportunities rigorously, pragmatically, and with an eye towards maintaining a standard of excellence.

  • Excellence

    We believe in constantly improving how we operate, striving to develop leading talent, resources, and processes.

Investment Approach

Diverse and deliberate

While Millennium is constantly evolving, our core philosophy has remained unchanged. Our process is driven by independent portfolio management teams. Our teams identify and pursue opportunities according to their specialties and within a risk framework tailored to their strategies. With this approach, we seek to provide a level of consistency that is difficult to replicate.

Leadership

Experience yields results

Millennium is run by a deep and seasoned team of experienced industry professionals. They operate in a collaborative, innovative, and entrepreneurial environment and drive the overall strategy across all our investing and infrastructure activities.

Regulatory and Compliance

Rigorous approach to compliance

We are focused on effectively navigating our dynamic and multi-jurisdictional regulatory environment. Our professional in-house legal and compliance teams provide control, guidance, and oversight.

Nearly a decade ago, we established a Regulatory and Compliance Advisory Council, comprised of experienced external professionals. The council helps us gain a more comprehensive perspective on critical regulatory developments and to adapt our policies and procedures in accordance with best practices.
