Revolution Capital Management

What Revolution Capital Management does

Revolution Capital Management LLC is a privately held commodities trading advisor (CTA) and commodity pool operator (CPO) founded in 2004 in Denver, Colorado. The firm develops and manages systematic quantitative trading programs that target low-to-zero correlation to traditional trend-following managed futures strategies, serving qualified eligible clients under CFTC Regulation 4.7. The company is registered with the National Futures Association and manages approximately $800 million in assets across its product suite.

The firm's core offering consists of two proprietary programs: Alpha, a diversified trading program targeting low correlation to trend-following benchmarks across 33 markets with a 4-day average holding period, and Mosaic Institutional, a short-term system targeting zero monthly correlation to trend-following serving as a pure diversification vehicle. Both programs target 12% annualized volatility with 8% average margin-to-equity and trade across all major market sectors including foreign stock indices and interest rates. The underlying technology relies on statistical pattern recognition and quantitative systematic methodologies developed with engineering rigor by the founding principals.

The firm's revenue model is based on management fees and performance fees typical of managed futures programs, with negotiated terms for qualified eligible clients. Distribution is direct to high-net-worth individuals and institutional investors. The company is controlled by three founding principals (Michael Mundt, Theodore Robert Olson, and Mark Chapin), all with engineering backgrounds, and has been self-funded through proprietary trading since inception with no disclosed external funding rounds.

Core offering

Revolution Capital Management is an NFA-registered Commodity Trading Advisor (CTA) and Commodity Pool Operator (CPO) that develops and operates two systematic quantitative managed futures programs—Alpha and Mosaic Institutional—for qualified eligible clients. The programs trade 33 global futures markets with engineered risk parameters (8% average margin-to-equity, 12% annualized volatility target) and are specifically designed to offer low-to-zero correlation to traditional trend-following benchmarks, serving as diversification vehicles within institutional managed futures portfolios. The firm directs approximately $800 million across the product suite.

Product overview

Revolution Capital Management offers a unified portfolio of two systematic, quantitative managed futures programs—Alpha and Mosaic Institutional—designed to provide low-to-zero correlation returns relative to traditional trend-following strategies. Alpha targets marginal correlation to trend-followers by capitalizing on trend dislocations and reversals, while Mosaic Institutional aims for zero correlation as a pure diversification vehicle. Both programs trade 33 markets across major sectors with consistent risk parameters: 8% average margin-to-equity and 12% annualized volatility targets. The firm directs approximately $800 million in assets across this product suite.

Direct peers

• Millburn Ridgefield: US-based systematic global macro/managed futures manager with multi-decade track record trading dozens of global futures markets. Highly comparable in product scope, systematic style, and US-based institutional distribution.
• Graham Capital Management: CTA offering systematic global macro and quantitative discretionary programs across global futures markets. Comparable in offering breadth and institutional client base, though at meaningfully larger AUM.
• Campbell & Company: US-registered CTA/CPO offering systematic and discretionary managed futures programs. Directly comparable regulatory and product positioning, with similar institutional and qualified eligible client focus.
• Winton Group: London-based systematic managed futures firm trading multiple global futures markets with quantitative statistical models—closely comparable to RCM's systematic, multi-market CTA approach with engineering-led research.
• Transtrend: Dutch systematic managed futures manager trading diversified global futures portfolios with quantitative trend and counter-trend models. Comparable in multi-market, systematic CTA style and institutional distribution.
• Aspect Capital: London-based systematic, diversified managed futures manager founded by ex-Man AHL principals. Trades across global futures markets using quantitative models—directly comparable to RCM's systematic multi-market CTA strategy.
• AQR Managed Futures: Academic-rooted quantitative asset manager with a managed futures strategy trading global futures using systematic, factor-based models. Comparable in quantitative, research-driven methodology and target institutional client base.

Emerging players

• Systematica Investments: Systematic alternatives manager founded by ex-BlueCrest principal Lee Gao, with managed futures and diversified systematic strategies. Comparable in systematic, multi-market quantitative approach though broader in scope.

Regional players

• Dymon Asia Capital: Singapore-based systematic managed futures and macro manager with quantitative multi-market strategies. Comparable in methodology but operates primarily in Asia, complementing rather than directly competing with RCM in the US.

Broad incumbents

• Man Group (AHL): One of the largest publicly-listed systematic CTA managers via its AHL platform, trading global futures with quantitative models. Operates at vastly greater scale than RCM but is the dominant reference point for systematic managed futures allocations.
