Belvedere Trading is a proprietary trading firm founded in 2002 that specializes in market-making in equity index and commodity derivatives. Headquartered in Chicago with offices in Boulder, New York, and Singapore, the firm provides liquidity to financial markets by offering two-sided quotes at competitive prices across its trading operations.
The firm's competitive advantage rests on proprietary trading software and systems built from the ground up and continually re-engineered for performance, alongside proprietary trading models developed through close collaboration between dedicated technology teams and traders. This technology-trader partnership approach enables iterative improvement of both systems and models in response to market conditions.

The firm emphasizes teamwork, merit-based advancement, and continuous innovation as core organizational values, with a particular focus on building high-performance systems and making measurable impact in financial markets.
