PinSec.Ai was born from a deep conviction: that financial markets are best navigated through data, discipline, and systematic thinking.
The journey began in 2017, when our founder, Sai Krishna Sekar, entered the world of finance as an analyst at a boutique investment bank in Seattle. It was there that he honed the fundamentals of financial modeling, deal analysis, and capital structuring — skills that would form the foundation of a much larger vision.
In 2019, his experience deepened at Bank of America Merrill Lynch, where he worked on strategic transactions involving complex financial instruments and multi-market structures. This global exposure offered a front-row seat to institutional capital flows and the mechanics of market behavior under stress and scale.
By 2021, Sai had returned to India to take on the challenge of managing capital for FPL Group, a family-run enterprise with over 1,800 employees and significant proprietary assets. During this period, he moved beyond traditional finance — rigorously experimenting with quantitative models, including statistical arbitrage, volatility spreads, momentum, and mean-reversion strategies. These models were tested across market regimes and consistently outperformed discretionary approaches in both return and risk metrics.
Along the way, Sai developed a sharp thesis: that modern investing demands repeatability, objectivity, and adaptive intelligence. Human intuition alone was no longer enough. Systematic models, rooted in data science and enhanced by machine learning, were the way forward.
PinSec.Ai was launched in 2024 to institutionalize that thesis — transforming experience and conviction into an end-to-end, technology-first investment platform.
Today, PinSec.Ai designs and deploys market- and sector-agnostic strategies, built on clean data, machine intelligence, robust risk architecture, and scalable infrastructure. The firm is driven by a core mission:
To deliver alpha with discipline — across time, across regimes, and without reliance on the human brain.
