Company mission
To provide affordable technology, that minimizes financing costs and maximizes return metrics.
Our take
Having advanced treasury capabilities can be a huge competitive edge in the hedge fund industry, and this is what Kayenta offer. Clients benefit from this technology and structuring, reducing financing costs and releasing capital.
Software alone doesn't solve the problems that hedge fund treasury teams face, so Kayenta pairs new technology with operations and structuring expertise to its clients.
Headed up by veteran Matthew Peakman, Kayenta is a team of industry experts, bringing decades of experience of the problems faced by the treasury teams within hedge funds. Its deep network plus decades of experience keep its partners better connected, and gives the company an advantage moving forwards.
