Biography
Dr. Matthew Jones is a registered investment advisor, and the founder & CEO of Quants Compete. Matthew earned both his bachelor’s degree and master’s degree in mechanical engineering at Clemson University. It was there he began to notice a fundamental connection between seemingly unrelated subjects. This sparked within him a deep curiosity about these connections, and so he went on to earn a Ph.D. in physics at Auburn University. It was in this environment that he began to formally investigate relationships that exist between physics, mathematics and finance.
When brokerages began to dramatically reduce their commission fees on stock and option trades, Dr. Jones recognized it as an opportunity for individuals to participate in the stock market, regardless of their net worth. This ultimately led to the founding of Quants Compete.
Dr. Jones is excited to help people achieve their financial goals. He is especially enthusiastic about being able to level the playing field by offering sophisticated wealth management tools to everyone.
