Our People
The quality of our people is what has and will continue to make Walleye great. We consider it imperative to maintain a collaborative and entrepreneurial environment in which everyone on the Walleye team is given an opportunity to be impactful.
We didn’t sit down when the firm was first founded and write out what we wanted our culture to look like. Walleye’s culture was an organic output of our behaviors – the shared way our leadership team and people at the firm do things every day.
Our culture is how our investors are treated as a partner and the transparency they receive. It is how an employee is onboarded, mentored, and then managed. It is a highly human, highly driven environment in which our talent has the ability to thrive, and our investments can then flourish.

Stewardship Code Disclosure Statement [UK only]:
Under Rule 2.2.3R of the Financial Conduct Authority’s Conduct of Business Sourcebook, Walleye Capital UK Limited (“WCUK”) is required to disclose the nature of its commitment to the UK Financial Reporting Council’s Stewardship Code (“the Code”) or, where it does not commit to the Code, to explain its approach. The Code is voluntary, and sets out a number of principles relating to engagement with UK listed companies. WCUK principally provides portfolio management and ancillary services across a number of asset classes and markets, following a number of diversified strategies. As a result, much of its investment activity relates to assets other than UK listed equities, and for the portion of investment focused on equities, exposure may not be taken directly. As such, opportunities for engagement with UK listed companies is limited, and the provisions of the Code are not viewed as materially relevant to WCUK’s investment strategy. Therefore, WCUK has chosen not to commit to the Code at this time.
Shareholders Rights Directive Disclosure Statement [UK only]:
Under Rule 2.2B.5.R of the Financial Conduct Authority’s Conduct of Business Sourcebook, Walleye Capital UK Limited (“WCUK”) is required to disclose whether it has an engagement policy in relation to issuers of investments traded on a regulated market or comparable overseas markets, or, where it does not comply with such requirements, to disclose why it has chosen not to do so. WCUK has chosen not to have an engagement policy for the reasons described. WCUK’s investment strategies covers a variety of asset classes and markets globally, including volatility, fundamental equities, quant and tactical strategies. For the portion of investments focused on equities, exposure is not typically taken on an activist investor basis. Therefore, an engagement policy has limited applicability to WCUK’s investment strategy given the limited opportunity to exercise stewardship. Were stewardship issues to arise, WCUK would take a consistent approach to engagement with issues and their management in all jurisdictions it invests, and in that regard, WCUK has policy on proxy voting. WCUK will keep this approach under periodic review.
