Our Story
Who we are
Founded in 2009, Ortega Capital was conceived from our desire in helping investors of all classes to build wealth.
A leader in systematic currency trading, our G10-focused currency strategies offers stable capital appreciation with low correlation to the performance of other asset classes like equities and bonds.
At Ortega Capital, we build consistent and sustainable strategies for the long term, leveraging on the power of compounding to grow our wealth.
Our Mission
Our Name
Ortega Capital’s name is partially inspired by a variety of grapes used in wine making. Much like the adage “Aging like fine wine”, we firmly believe that good investments get better the longer we nurture it.
Our Guiding Principles
Consistency & Sustainability
We strive not for the highest performance, but for a product that can perform at the same level year after year.
We obsess over our technology infrastructure, to ensure that we get the best executions and fastest connectivity to the markets.
We aim to generate consistent and sustainable returns over the long term to leverage the effect of compounding.
“Good investing is boring. If it is entertaining, you’re probably not making money.”

Risk Aversion
We adopt a disciplined trading approach by adhering to a conservative set of trading parameters with an aim to maximize risk-adjusted returns for our products.
We believe that successful investing is about managing and controlling our risk exposure to the market.
“Successful investing is about managing risk, not avoiding it.”
– Benjamin Graham
Fund Safety
We emphasize on the safety of investor’s funds as we help them accumulate their wealth.
We only work with trustworthy counterparties to oversee and regulate fund movements, and we are transparent in all our dealings.
