About Us

J. Goldman & Co., L.P. (“JGC”) is a collaborative, equity-focused, multi-strategy hedge fund founded in 1986 by Jay G. Goldman. JGC’s investment philosophy incorporates an unrelenting focus on idiosyncratic, alpha-generating ideas based on fundamental analysis, a comprehensive understanding of trading dynamics, and disciplined risk management. JGC seeks to achieve attractive risk-adjusted returns in all market conditions with low correlation and volatility. We employ an idea-centric approach to capital allocation, using a rigorous process to identify, evaluate, and allocate capital to the best ideas of our investment professionals. This flexible capital mandate allows our teams to focus their time and resources on the most compelling ideas without pressure to recycle capital. Risk is meticulously managed using a three-layered approach encompassing the idea level, portfolio level, and firm level, emphasizing robust downside protection. JGC operates as a meritocracy where teamwork is demanded, talent is rewarded, and absolute integrity is required.
