Introduction to SAC

SAC is a multi-strategy, private asset management firm founded by Steven A. Cohen in 1992 with 9 employees and $25 million in assets under management. As of December 2007, the firm has grown to over 800 employees with approximately $14 billion in assets under management.

SAC's initial investment style was "trading" oriented. However, we have evolved into a multi-strategy, multi-disciplinary, investment management firm emphasizing rigorous research and risk management practices.

SAC's investment strategies include, but are not limited to: Fundamental and Technical Long/Short Equity Portfolios, Global Quantitative Strategies, Fixed Income and Credit, Global Macro Strategies, Convertible Bonds, and Emerging Markets.

SAC's success is attributed to:

  • Our ability to attract, develop and challenge our professionals.
  • Our culture that promotes innovation, entrepreneurialism and accountability.
  • Our world-class infrastructure.
