Partner Summary

Aslan Labs is a private, multi-jurisdictional research and strategy group focused on alpha generation in digital-asset markets. Operating across Seychelles, the United Kingdom, Hong Kong, and with a regulated asset-management arm in formation in Mauritius, the group combines quantitative signals, macro insight, and rigorous risk management to serve family offices and qualified investors.

The firm runs two complementary strategies in parallel. Narnia, the spot-led flagship active since 2021, has delivered an all-time ROI of 1,189% through adaptive hedging and macro-regime framing. Caspian, the derivatives mandate, delivered a net return of +47.0% in H1 2026 with a 2.18 Sharpe ratio and a maximum drawdown of just -1.7%.

The conviction-led, research-first framework prioritises capital preservation and exchange-verifiable transparency. All strategies are personally managed by the founder and principal portfolio manager, Philip Pete Plaatjies, and performance is reproduced from account-level records rather than marketing estimates.

Aslan Labs represents the kind of ambitious, boundary-pushing founder that Founder.Careers is built to support: institutional-grade, globally distributed, and engineering conviction at scale.

Aslan Labs is actively deploying capital across both Narnia and Caspian strategies, with a regulated asset-management vehicle in formation under the Mauritius Financial Services Commission. Family offices and qualified investors can request full term sheets, fee schedules, and exchange-verifiable performance documentation via private arrangement.

All strategies are high-risk and trade leveraged digital-asset instruments. Past performance is not indicative of future results.
