What Hilbert Group does
Hilbert Group (Nasdaq First North Stockholm: HILB B) is a Sweden-based, publicly listed digital-asset investment firm founded in 2018 by Dr. Magnus Holm and Dr. Niclas Sandström. The firm operates an institutional asset management business built on a proprietary quantitative trading stack — the Caerus algorithm in production since 2017 — running multiple market-neutral and basis-trading strategies, including the Hilbert Capital Basis+ BTC and Basis+ USD funds, the Multistrat USD fund, and the Xapo Byzantine BTC Credit Fund, alongside AI-driven products such as the Hilbert Liberty Fund and the Multi-Strat Fund. Reported AUM is approaching $400M, with a $300M pipeline cited and distribution secured through Coinbase (SMA), 3iQ, Xapo, and HAYVN.
The business model is multi-pillar. Core revenue is generated from management and performance fees on the fund platform, with growth-stage revenue increasingly coming from a corporate Bitcoin treasury strategy launched in July 2025 (BTC acquired at an average price around $84,568) and from the Syntetika tokenization platform, which received an initial $105M commitment from Caddy Finance. The firm has used M&A to extend the platform: Liberty Road Capital (November 2024) added the Liberty AI engine and approximately $110M of AUM, Nordark (September 2025) added crypto-banking infrastructure, and Enigma Nordic (December 2025) added an HFT market-making platform for an aggregate consideration of up to $25M including earn-outs. CEO Barnali Biswal (appointed November 2024, effective January 2025) is repositioning the firm toward institutional LPs and a US listing within roughly twelve months, supported by a 6,527-shareholder base, board additions including Fahad Khan (ex-Plurimi Wealth), and Gibraltar regulatory approval for an institutional Bitcoin yield product.

Hilbert Group competitors and assessment
Company assessmentDirect peers
- Galaxy Digital: Publicly listed digital-asset and crypto-asset management firm offering trading, asset management, proprietary investments and advisory. Directly comparable to Hilbert's full-stack institutional crypto model, with the same emphasis on quantitative strategies, AUM growth and treasury-style crypto holdings.
- CoinShares International: European (Sweden/Jersey-listed) digital-asset investment manager with quantitative, beta and hedge fund products. Closest direct peer given geographic overlap (Nordic base), public-market listing, and similar mix of institutional ETP-style and active quantitative strategies.
- 21Shares: Swiss crypto ETP and asset manager with institutional fund products. Comparable to Hilbert Capital's Basis+ and Multistrat offerings, though more focused on listed product structures and distribution rather than discretionary institutional mandates.
- Grayscale Investments: Largest US digital-asset manager (part of Digital Currency Group) offering spot crypto funds and institutional products. Closest analogue in AUM scale and institutional mandate focus; differs in being a single-strategy spot/beta manager rather than multi-strategy quantitative.
- Bitwise Asset Management: US crypto asset manager with both index/ETP products and actively managed strategies for advisors and institutions. Comparable in offering institutional-grade alpha strategies (e.g., Bitwise Alpha) alongside regulated fund wrappers, with similar institutional go-to-market motion.
- Pantera Capital: Long-standing US crypto hedge fund and venture firm managing multi-strategy digital-asset mandates for institutions and HNW. Comparable to Hilbert Capital in offering market-neutral and directional crypto strategies to institutional LPs with a quant-driven, multi-fund structure.
Emerging players
- Wave Financial: California-based digital-asset manager offering structured yield, BTC/ETH funds and venture exposures. Smaller and more US-centric than Hilbert, but overlapping in Bitcoin yield and institutional mandate focus (e.g., parallels with the Xapo Byzantine BTC Credit Fund).
- FalconX: Institutional digital-asset prime brokerage offering trading, credit and structured products to institutions. Comparable to Hilbert's Nordark/Enigma market-neutral trading infrastructure and to its institutional distribution ambitions; differs in being execution-focused rather than fund-management-led.
Regional players
- HashKey Capital: Asia (Hong Kong)-headquartered digital-asset manager operating regulated crypto funds, OTC and tokenization services. Comparable to Hilbert's institutional and tokenization strategy but primarily serves Asia-Pacific institutional clients rather than European/Nordic.
Broad incumbents
- WisdomTree Investments: Large US-listed asset manager with a growing crypto ETP and digital-fund lineup. Comparable distribution channel overlap (listed products to retail and institutional clients) but crypto is a small part of a much broader traditional asset-management platform.
