Culture & values

Automation & Efficiency

We are disciples of automation and efficiency, trading millions of times a day in markets around the globe. At its core, HRT is a small tech company with a big footprint.

Code of Ethics

Our internal code of ethics far exceeds the expectations of the regulatory environment in which we operate. We are conscientious market participants advocating for fair and transparent markets for everyone. This philosophy influences every aspect of our research.

Diversity, Equity and Inclusion

At HRT, we celebrate Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion. Our culture is a reflection of the individuals – across race, gender identity and expression, age, religion and worship practices, education status, nationality, and identity – who bring their varied perspectives to work.
