01 Who We Are
DFI Labs is a Paris-based quantitative research and technology company established in 2019. Our edge is built on deep research: proprietary factor models, machine-learning signal extraction, and rigorous statistical validation across hundreds of liquid instruments.
We combine that research with in-house signal-generation infrastructure and monitoring technology. Regulated portfolio management, where applicable, is carried out within an authorised asset-management framework. DFI Labs does not provide regulated portfolio management, investment advice, custody or crypto-asset services directly to investors.
