Our edge

Our edge

Tomorrow's economy

Uniquely, we express systematic macro strategies through investments in enterprises. Example: instead of expressing a view on the U.S. interest-rate curve through government bonds, we invest in the companies most sensitive to that macro movement.


Thus we invest in a select group of tomorrow’s exceptional companies, representing less than 2% of the global market. Starting with tomorrow’s macroeconomics, followed by in-depth company intelligence.

Tomorrow's technology: NINA

We invest with our systematic proprietary Technology: NINA. Classical quant + agentic AI, built through over almost a decade of experience managing more than EUR 34 bn.

Reza Kahali - Fund manager & CEO



2018 - 2021

Foundation

At NN Investment Partners, Reza led the development of computer-driven macro strategies powering cross-asset portfolios with over €34 billion in assets.


These strategies, later acquired by Goldman Sachs, taught him a crucial lesson: that robustness and interpretability matter more than complexity.

2021 - 2024

'The Origin'

At Rijn Capital, managing €400M, Reza laid the foundation of argan.ai.


Reza was set out to solve a challenge: build a strategy that protest capital in drawdowns and outperforms in rallies. With two core believes in mind:


  • Start with the macro first

  • Combine classical quant systems with modern AI technology

2024

The argan.ai strategy

After years of refinement, Reza launched the strategy as a full-scale, independent investment firm with the system and strategies developed over the years as its centre.

2025

Validation

April 2025 was the perfect testing ground for Reza’s approach. We managed to avoid large drawdowns, like the market.

Mid April, our systems started allowing for positions in certain equity sectors, higher beta companies and we lowered defensive exposures (gold). Allowing us to grow faster than the market in May.

Finally, the nomination 'newcomer of the year 2025' by With Intelligence is the affirmation from the market that argan.ai has a place in the industry

“Liquidating real estate investments takes time. Stocks are easy to trade, but very hard to do well. That's why I make a mix of asset classes and investments and that’s exactly where argan.ai adds value.”
