We believe that the upcoming revolutions in asset management will surpass all past disruptions, transforming the industry on every level.


MCFT’s founders, Romain Charlassier and Lucas Mouilleron, have each spent over a decade as practitioners in the asset management industry. Together, they bring a unique combination of market insight, scientific rigor, and technological expertise.
Romain holds a PhD in physics and began his career in academic research, with a focus in data science and artificial intelligence. Lucas has a background in computer science, with expertise in software development and large-scale databases.
Throughout their careers, they’ve developed deep expertise in systematic portfolio management, particularly within equity strategies. They’ve also led the development of software solutions across the asset management stack — from signal engines to PMS/OMS systems. In parallel, they’ve been actively involved in designing a wide range of absolute return and smart beta strategies, and have served as portfolio managers of alternative long/short funds.

- AI-powered interfaces, combining the ease of natural language with the precision of expert systems
- Next-level product customization, making tailored portfolio design available to all investors, pushing well beyond the limits of traditional ETFs and index-based products
