Winton Capital Management was founded in 1997 with the aim of delivering significant returns through long-term compound growth. The company is research-led, using scientific research and statistical analysis techniques to develop proprietary trading systems for the international asset markets.

Winton executes a systematic trading programme in which it can hold long or short positions in over 100 futures markets around the world. The programme blends short-term trades with long-term trend following, incorporating both multiple time frames and systems.

The company pursues a diversified trading strategy which does not rely on favourable conditions in any particular market or on general appreciation of asset values.
