Technology and Infrastructure Designed to Scale Systematic Strategies
Institutional infrastructure to support managers across execution, capital allocation, credit access, and compensation — with alignment built around sustainable performance.
Technology at the Core
Tailored systems. Institutional execution. Integrated risk.
Our technology infrastructure is purpose-built to support quantitative portfolio managers with customizable execution tooling, real-time analytics, and centralized oversight of risk and performance. Every system is designed to scale strategies without compromising control.
High-Performance Execution, Built Around Managers
We design execution environments in partnership with each portfolio team, optimizing for strategy-specific needs while maintaining firm-level integrity. Our systems are engineered to minimize latency, reduce slippage, and ensure execution resilience.
- Co-located servers with major digital asset exchanges
- Smart order routing with venue-aware logic
- Low-slippage architecture for fragmented liquidity
- Manager-specific execution environments and integrations
- Real-time analytics on fill quality, venue behavior, and cost
Execution infrastructure is not an off-the-shelf layer — it’s embedded and adaptive.
Systematic Allocation Guided by Cross-Strategy Intelligence
Our capital deployment framework is supported by proprietary technology that continuously evaluates performance across internal and external strategies.
- Strategy-level and manager-level return diagnostics
- Peer benchmarking across current and prospective managers
- Cross-cycle analysis of drawdowns, volatility, and recovery
- Real-time and historical performance and correlation analytics
- Comparative scoring frameworks for risk-adjusted allocations
These tools provide a consistent lens for evaluating risk, persistence, and capital efficiency — across teams, styles, and regimes.
Centralized Risk Oversight. Strategy-Level precision
All strategies at Lighthouse operate within a centralized risk environment. Portfolio exposures, capital allocations, and live trading activity feed into our internal systems in real time — allowing for continuous oversight and constraint management.
Risk is not applied post-trade. It is integrated into the system architecture, ensuring that firm-level guidelines are enforced without interfering with manager autonomy.
Institutional Infrastructure
Custody, governance, and operational systems designed to protect capital, scale efficiently, and meet allocator expectations.
Custody & Counterparty Risk Mitigation
We partner with regulated, third-party custodians to safeguard assets off-chain and reduce exposure to exchange failure or infrastructure downtime.
- Tripartite arrangements between Lighthouse, custodians, and exchanges ensure that principal is never at risk
- Assets are held independently of trading venues, eliminating venue solvency risk
- Custodians integrate directly with fund administration and internal oversight systems
- Real-time asset monitoring, permissions controls, and reconciliation tools embedded in fund ops
Prime brokers provide additional protection through insurance wrappers and post-trade risk programs
Prime Brokerage, Financing & Trading Efficiency
Our relationships with leading digital asset prime brokers support competitive execution, efficient capital deployment, and scalable leverage.
- Access to financing and credit lines at competitive interest rates
- Margin and collateral management structured to support high-turnover strategies
- Preferential fee arrangements and trading rebates across exchanges and liquidity partners
- Live insight into funding costs, exposures, and borrowing limits through platform systems
Our Perspective
We scale strategies through infrastructure — not just capital. Our technology is designed to empower high-performing teams while maintaining discipline at the platform level.
Designed for Scale.
Built for Alignment.
From execution to oversight, every system at Lighthouse reflects a single design principle: enable managers to perform at the highest level — with infrastructure that keeps pace.
