Jason Koulouras

Jason has almost 39 years of working experience in almost all firm types in the Capital Markets space, dedicated to the servant-leader model of how to be in the world.

As the Research Data Ranger and Market Data Leader at Bridgewater Associates, I am responsible for global information, data, and analytics discovery for the Front Office. With extensive experience in this role, I have developed and refined the business processes, infrastructure, and external services that enable our investment teams to understand and interact with the markets. I never stand still though, and I am always learning as my colleagues and vendor providers will attest to.

My core competencies include Enterprise Data Management, Market Data, Research, Analytics, Data Governance, Data Quality, Product Management, and Business Development. I own and manage a service platform that is continuously evolving to meet customer requirements and deliver the right inputs and capabilities. I also partner with the internal customers and external vendors to ensure that data, information, and research are in place for all. My mission is to provide data-driven insights and solutions that support Bridgewater's unique culture and approach to investing.
I partner with external service providers, content providers, venues, counterparties, brokers, and alternative data and design providers to help jointly improve the service experience, outcomes and reliability of the end-to-end value chains and system architecture. Bridgewater highly values important and quality relationships and in my role, there are numerous external firms that we need to be excellent, and we work with them to help achieve excellence.
