Steven Schonfeld

Schonfeld is the founder of Schonfeld Strategic Advisors, a hedge fund with $17.5 billion in assets under management.

He first launched his business in 1988 as a proprietary trading firm specializing in short-term trading and converted it into a family office around 2009.

Schonfeld evolved into a multi-strategy hedge fund that opened to outside investors in 2016. Its flagship fund has never had a losing year.

He built a private nine-hole golf course on 44 acres in the backyard of his Old Westbury, New York home.
