PEAK6 Investments, L.P. Profile
PEAK6 Investments is an asset management firm that is headquartered in the Chicago Board of Trade Building. The company was originally founded by Matt Hulsizer and Jenny Just, who both worked at O’Connor and Associates. O’Connor and Associates would be acquired by the Swiss bank Corporation in 1992, and, because the Swiss Bank decided to change the company’s direction, Matt and Jenny would decide to launch their own firm with their own vision. PEAK6 Investments was established in 1997 to become “one of the first firms to develop sophisticated, proprietary technology, which more efficiently manages risk in the options market.” The company would grow and launch two new business in 2006: OptionsHouse, which serves as an online consumer retail brokerage with the goal of delivering exception value and technology for active options traders, and PEAK6 Advisors LLC, which is an investment advisor registered with the SEC. PEAK6 Investments continued to expand, entering into the clearing business in 2012 with its investment into the Apex Clearing Corporation. The company’s business and the business operations of its two subsidiaries would continue to grow until 2014, when PEAK6 Investments decided to sell OptionsHouse to General Atlantic and sell its stake in PEAK6 Advisors, which at that time had over $2 billion in total assets under management, to Joe Scoby, then the CEO of PEAK6 Advisors. The company today is still located in Chicago, although it has opened an additional office in Seattle, and offers a variety of options trading, risk management, clearing, and proprietary trading services. PEAK6 Investments has a high emphasis on technology, especially data, and invests primarily in the technology and services sectors, which together make up over a third of its total asset allocations, and also invests in the financial, health care, energy, consumer non-cyclical, basic materials, consumer cyclical, and capital goods sectors, among others to a lesser degree, in order of decreasing amount allocated.
