Vertus Achieves $1 Billion Daily Trading Milestone, Closes 2025 with 51% Returns

Proprietary AI Systems Outperform Major Hedge Funds with Superior Risk-Adjusted Returns.

Vertus, a frontier artificial intelligence company, announced two major milestones demonstrating the advancement of machine reasoning in financial markets: surpassing $1 billion in daily AI-driven transactions and delivering 51.15% returns for 2025 with a Sharpe ratio of 2.13—figures independently audited by Alpha Performance Verification Services, Certified Public Accountants.

The $1 billion single-day volume milestone, first achieved on November 25, 2025, caps a breakthrough year in which Vertus’ AI systems significantly outperformed both traditional market indices and leading hedge funds on both absolute and risk-adjusted return metrics. Vertus’ 2025 performance places the company’s AI systems among the top-performing institutional trading operations globally:

• 51.15% annual return vs. S&P 500’s ~17% (more than 2x market performance)
• 2.13 Sharpe ratio vs. leading hedge fund range of 0.5-1.5 (superior risk-adjusted returns)
• $600M+ average daily volume with systems processing $1B daily regularly
• Consistently positive returns achieved through advanced machine reasoning

“This milestone validates everything we built,” said Julius Franck, Co-Founder at Vertus. “We engineered a quantitatively backed system that thinks and acts at market speed—processing complexity, making decisions, and executing with precision that traditional algorithms simply cannot match. The independently verified billion-dollar threshold proves the architecture is performing exactly as designed.”

Vertus developed and stress-tested its core systems in the Isle of Man, where progressive regulation and robust digital infrastructure provided the ideal environment to validate machine reasoning under live market conditions. What began as controlled experimentation has become production-grade technology now powering institutional-scale investing infrastructure.

The company’s technology now serves as the decision-making backbone for a growing network of funds, family offices, and asset managers, executing in high-velocity markets where legacy systems falter.

“We’ve proven that advanced intelligence architecture outperforms decades-old algorithmic models,” said Alex Foster, Co-Founder. “Financial markets were the perfect crucible—unforgiving, instantaneous, high-stakes. Our planned expansions put us at the center of the next wave: applying this reasoning power across autonomous systems and the computational infrastructure required for superintelligence.”

The 2.13 Sharpe ratio—a measure of risk-adjusted returns—demonstrates that Vertus’ performance wasn’t achieved through excessive risk-taking. The company’s AI systems generated returns more than double the market while maintaining disciplined risk management; a combination rarely achieved in quantitative finance.

With daily transaction volumes regularly exceeding $1 billion, Vertus has established itself as critical infrastructure in modern investing ecosystems. The company’s trajectory from inception to billion-dollar daily transactions represents one of the fastest scaling timelines in autonomous systems deployment.

“Financial markets are just the beginning,” said Michal Prywata, Co-Founder. “We built AI that learned to reason in an environment where mistakes cost millions and decisions happen in milliseconds. That same intelligence now powers capital at scale—and we’re rapidly expanding into domains that demand genuine machine reasoning. We’re not just building financial systems. We’re architecting the infrastructure for the next generation of intelligence.”
