With private banking as its cornerstone, The Bahamas offers full wealth management services and is one of the world’s leading international financial centres.  An established international financial centre, The Bahamas’ many strengths include political and fiscal stability, an independent judiciary, quality service providers, strong and effective anti money laundering legislation and more than  200 financial institutions. It also includes progressive dialogue among government, regulators and the private sector and its associations. This type of constructive dialogue led to The Bahamas becoming the first jurisdiction to introduce SMART©Funds and the first common law country to introduce Foundations.
Fundamental to the Bahamas leadership position is the Central Bank of The Bahamas that has been regulating banks and trust companies since the early 1960s and is recognized for creating a stable environment for the country’s financial institutions.  Bahamas Financial Services Board (BFSB), which represents the full range of financial and professional services providers in the country, is focused on the continued development of an environment that is conducive to business and promoting a greater awareness of The Bahamas’ strengths.

Renaissance Technologies LLC, founded by Dr. James Simons in 1982, is an investment management firm dedicated to producing superior returns for its investors by applying rigorous quantitative methods in the design and execution of its investment programs.  The Firm approaches investing as a scientific problem that human acumen, advanced mathematical and statistical techniques and robust technology are well-suited to address.  Continuous improvement and adaptation are required for quantitative systems to maintain their investment edge.  An appreciation of this need is a fundamental characteristic of the Firm’s investment philosophy and is engrained in the culture fostered for over twenty years.  Medallion Fund, trading since 1989, has been closed to new outside investment since 1993 and is over 95% employee-owned as of March 2008.  Renaissance Institutional Equities Fund (“RIEF”) is a quantitative, long-biased investment fund that invests in U.S. and non-U.S. equity securities publicly traded on U.S. exchanges.  RIEF has been designed to accommodate the needs of large institutional investors and to add significant value over U.S. equity market indices, with markedly less risk, over three-to-five year rolling periods.  RIEF began trading outside investor capital on August 1, 2005. The Renaissance Institutional Futures Fund (“RIFF”) is a leveraged, slow-trading, global futures and forwards fund.  RIFF has been designed to provide risk-adjusted returns with zero to low correlation to U.S. and global equity markets and with low to medium correlation to other asset classes over the medium- to long-term.  The trading of outside investor capital began on October 1, 2007.  Renaissance Technologies LLC has been an SEC Registered Investment Advisor since 1998 and a CFTC/NFA registered Commodity Pool Operator and Commodity Trading Advisor since 1988.  The Firm maintains offices in New York City; East Setauket, New York; San Francisco, California; Greenwich, Connecticut; London, United Kingdom; and Milan, Italy; and currently manages over $30 billion for institutional and high-net-worth clients worldwide.
