AI-Driven Investment Strategy

The Qraft Soliton Master Fund employs an AI-driven, multi-strategy approach to generate sustainable returns by identifying dislocations in liquid equity derivatives markets across Korea, Hong Kong SAR, the U.S., and Europe. The fund focuses on systematic strategies, including equity long-short (market-neutral), mid-frequency long-biased, and arbitrage. “This partnership brings Qraft’s proprietary AI-driven strategy to an institutional framework, meeting the growing demand for adaptable, cutting-edge investment solutions,” said Jae Hyeok Heo, CIO of the Fund.

Qraft Technologies’ Expertise

Qraft Technologies, headquartered in Seoul with affiliates in Asia-Pacific and the U.S., is a global leader in AI-powered asset management. Backed by a $146 million Series C investment from SoftBank Group in January 2022, Qraft’s technology powers U.S.-listed AI-driven ETFs and sets new benchmarks for machine learning in portfolio construction and trading. The fund leverages Qraft’s expertise in AI pattern recognition and disciplined quantitative processes to deliver value to global investors.

OPIM’s Strategic Platform

OPIM’s robust platform provides the infrastructure and oversight needed to connect innovative managers like Qraft with international capital. The fund offers institutional and professional investors access to Qraft’s previously exclusive AI-driven approach through an accessible Cayman structure. “South Korea’s investment talent has long been underappreciated,” said Alvin Fan, CEO of OPIM. “The KOSPI’s strong year-to-date outperformance in 2025, driven by robust corporate governance reforms, has brought renewed global attention to the market.”

Key Counterparties

The fund is supported by industry-leading partners:

  • Prime Broker and Custodian: Morgan Stanley

  • Administrator: Maples Fund Services

  • Auditor: KPMG

  • Legal Counsel: Charles Russell Speechlys LLP and Walkers

Market Context and Opportunity

The KOSPI’s strong performance in 2025, fueled by corporate governance reforms, highlights South Korea’s growing appeal to global investors. The Qraft Soliton Master Fund capitalizes on this trend, offering access to South Korea’s skilled money managers and Qraft’s AI-driven innovation to generate alpha in global markets.
