Stuart Reid: Quant to Entrepreneur

In this episode of Selling Signals, we’re joined by Stuart Reid, CEO of Nosible. A computer scientist and former quant, Stuart has priced complex derivatives, experimented with deep learning for market prediction, and now leads a team building infrastructure for financial institutions to search and monitor the web in real time.
At Nosible, Stuart and his team index tens of millions of webpages every day, structuring and verifying web content so it can be used by investment funds, asset managers, banks and insurers. Their focus on point-in-time integrity and traceability makes them akin to the “point-in-time police” of the internet.
We discuss what data vendors often misunderstand when selling to systematic investors, why Nosible is building a web-scale search engine for funds, and how AI is changing the structure of the web itself. As more content is created, copied and remixed at scale, verification may matter more than volume.
This episode is essential listening for anyone building web-derived alternative data, selling to quants or thinking seriously about the future of information in financial markets.
