ABOUT US
Da Vinci is founded in 2015 by a group of young trading professionals who wanted to do things differently. We are meritocratic by nature and think that empowering talent within our organization is the only way forward.
This firm belief helped us to create a highly successful company that is growing rapidly. Testimony to this belief is the fact that the company itself is owned and managed by its own employees. Our ultimate goal is to become the best trading company in the world. Our trading focuses on volatility arbitrage as well as providing liquidity to end investors. Da Vinci is a pure proprietary trading firm; this means that we trade with our own money, without clients creating natural risk awareness. We aim to create the best proprietary trading house in the world. We like to work with smart, talented and passionate people from all around the world.
