Financial Machine Learning

Orion is built on the principle that Financial Machine Learning can make portfolio management radically more accessible. By combining data-driven insights with automated execution, Orion enables smarter, more adaptive investment strategies - available to everyone.

Why It Matters​

In traditional finance, advanced portfolio optimization tools are reserved for institutions and hedge funds.

Orion brings these capabilities onchain, so:

  • Everyday users can access strategies that simplify decision-making.
  • Experienced managers can enhance performance with data-driven insights.
  • All participants can benefit from automated allocation.

Two Core Approaches​

Orion supports two main styles of portfolio management:

  1. Passive Portfolios - Simple, rules-based strategies (e.g., indexes) that automatically rebalance.

    • Great for users who want hands-off, predictable exposure.

  2. Active, Machine Learning Driven Strategies - Adaptive models that adjust allocations in real time.

    • Ideal for users seeking more dynamic, performance-focused portfolios.

Powered by skfolio​

Under the hood, Orion integrates skfolio, an open-source portfolio management library for quantitative finance. This allows vault strategies to leverage advanced statistical techniques, from covariance analysis to risk-adjusted optimization, while keeping everything verifiable and onchain.

What This Means for You​

With Financial-Machine-Learning-powered vaults, you can choose a strategy that matches your style:

  • Stay passive with transparent, rules-based allocations.
  • Go active with private, adaptive models seeking to maximize performance.

In both cases, Orion handles execution in the background - rebalancing at set intervals, keeping costs low, and protecting strategy details where needed.
