Quantic Financial Solutions
Quantic Financial Solutions was founded in Vienna in 2011 by Hans-Michael Schania, Roland Demmel, and Dietrich Matthes — three operators with deep ties to strategy consulting and institutional risk management. The firm originally launched as a predictive-analytics provider for banks before joining the C-Quadrat Investment Group in 2018, a move that transformed it from a pure software house into an asset manager running quantitative equity strategies. Its strategy fuses proprietary credit-scoring infrastructure with direct capital deployment. The core is a multidimensional algorithmic system trained on data covering more than 42 million corporates, used by major European banks and audited by three Big Four firms. On the asset-management side, Quantic runs fully automated long/short equity algorithms built atop the same DeepData engine, alongside direct private-debt and factoring funds for European SMEs. The firm reports roughly €1.1bn in fee-generating assets under management and advisory and an additional €35bn under risk consulting, spanning credit-risk analysis, IFRS 9 curve management, regulatory stress-testing, and early-warning systems for bank clients across Europe. The partnership bench is compact and senior. Co-founder Dietrich Matthes remains a director of the private-debt fund, while Managing Partner Christian Jost — a veteran of C-Quadrat — runs inorganic growth and business development from Vienna. In 2022 the firm disclosed that its prediction models were deployed inside more than a dozen global top‑100 institutions, several European central banks, and leading audit networks, with a secondary office in Bratislava supporting delivery. A separate advisory and restructuring practice helps institutions optimize portfolios using the same underlying dataset. Quantic's structural differentiator is that it is neither a pure vendor nor a pure fund manager: it sells the engine that half a dozen central banks use for stress-testing while simultaneously trading capital on top of the same signals. That dual posture means its risk models are continuously hardened by real-money outcomes, a loop that standalone SaaS providers rarely close.

Frequently asked questions
Who runs investment decisions at Quantic Financial Solutions?
Co-founder Hans-Michael Schania oversees investment strategy as Managing Partner, drawing on earlier experience managing complex credit funds and wind-down portfolios across London and Vienna. Portfolio construction and algorithmic execution are driven by the firm's proprietary multidimensional algorithmic system, developed by Schania alongside co-founders Roland Demmel and Dietrich Matthes and a team of mathematicians and risk analysts.
How does Quantic source its proprietary deal flow and investment signals?
Quantic built a proprietary prediction engine fed by fundamental data on more than 42 million corporates globally. That dataset powers both the firm's internal equity and private-credit strategies and the risk-modeling software it licenses to banks and central banks, creating a continuous feedback loop between live-market trading and institutional-grade credit analytics.
Is Quantic structured as a technology vendor or an asset manager?
It operates as both. The firm sells risk-modeling and stress-testing software to banks, central banks, and audit firms, while simultaneously managing quantitative equity funds and a direct private-debt and factoring fund on the same underlying DeepData infrastructure. The dual structure was cemented in 2018 when Quantic joined the C-Quadrat Investment Group.
Does Quantic participate in fund commitments or only direct deals?
Quantic runs quantitative single-asset equity strategies via automated trading algorithms and also operates a private-debt and factoring fund focused on European SMEs, in which co-founder Dietrich Matthes serves as a director. The firm does not publicly disclose a fund-of-funds program or third-party GP commitments.
Which sectors does Quantic explicitly avoid?
Quantic does not publish a formal exclusion list. Its public materials emphasize credit-risk analytics, quantitative equity, and European private debt for SMEs, suggesting it stays within markets where its balance-sheet prediction models have been certified and where the firm has direct operational experience.
How does Quantic relate to the C-Quadrat Investment Group?
Quantic became a member of the C-Quadrat Investment Group in 2018. Managing Partner Christian Jost, a long-time C-Quadrat executive who joined Quantic in 2020, oversees inorganic growth and asset-management business development, linking the firm's analytics arm to a broader European investment platform.
Does Quantic maintain philanthropic structures, and how are they separated?
No philanthropic vehicles are publicly disclosed by Quantic Financial Solutions or its named principals.
