Our History

Jane Street was founded in 2000 by three traders and a technologist with a common vision:

Jane Street has grown every year in its team, capital, and global presence, while enhancing its expertise in technology, operations, and trading. We safely navigated the dotcom and subprime excesses, staying true to our core focus rather than following the herd.

Jane Street’s team is now over 800 strong, and our trading volumes have skyrocketed as we’ve refined our understanding of how to value, trade, and hedge complex securities.
