"Anne Dinning, one the most prominent women in quantitative finance, has rejoined the executive committee of DE Shaw, the secretive New York hedge fund where she helped pioneer algorithmic trading that has since spread across Wall Street."[1]
"Ms Dinning first joined the $50bn-in-assets hedge fund in 1990 after obtaining a PhD in computer science, but left DE Shaw’s executive committee in 2017. She returned to the quantitative hedge fund at the end of February, according to people familiar with the matter."[1]
"Founder David Shaw is primarily focused on research in computational biology, leaving the executive committee to run the hedge fund."[1]
"Although DE Shaw has expanded into several more traditional, non-systematic strategies such as activism and distressed debt, it is still widely considered one of the leading players in the quantitative investing industry, along with Two Sigma, which was founded by two former DE Shaw executives, and Renaissance Technologies. Outside the finance industry, DE Shaw is best-known for having employed a young Jeff Bezos while he worked on the idea that eventually became Amazon, but it is the fourth-highest grossing hedge fund group of all time, having made more than $29bn for its investors since its inception, according to LCH Investments."[1]
"This is Ms Dinning’s second return to DE Shaw, having previously retired in 1999 but rejoining in 2002. Forbes says she is the 33rd richest self-made woman in the US, with a fortune of about $640m as of the middle of 2018. Ms Dinning sits on the boards of the Robin Hood Foundation and Math for America, charities popular with big hedge fund managers. The computer scientist first joined DE Shaw after meeting Mr Shaw at a party, despite only interviewing “as a lark” and admitting she did not even know what a hedge fund did, according to a New York Magazine piece on the fund’s early days."[1]
