About AQR Capital Management

AQR is a global investment firm built at the intersection of financial theory and practical application.

At AQR, our employees share a common spirit of academic excellence, intellectual honesty and an unwavering commitment to seeking the truth. We're determined to know what makes financial markets tick - and we'll ask every question and challenge every assumption.
