Overview
Capula Investment Management is a global investment manager whose roots lie in fixed-income relative value.

Its approach emphasizes relative pricing, portfolio construction, liquidity, and tail-risk awareness. These capabilities are especially relevant when government bond markets are influenced simultaneously by inflation expectations, fiscal issuance, regulatory demand, and changes in monetary policy. Within The Economy Wiki, the institution is connected to the Global Macro Hedge Funds category.
