Bob Elliott

CEO & CIO

Bob Elliott is the Co-Founder, CEO, and CIO of Unlimited, which uses machine learning to create low-cost index replications of 2&20 style alternative investments like hedge funds, venture capital and private equity. The first product, $HFND ETF, was the fastest growing independent active ETF launch of 2022. In 2023 Unlimited used its technology to launch its Agile Strategy, which has many of the same desirable features of a multi-manager fund with much lower costs and better liquidity terms.

Prior to founding Unlimited, Bob served on the Investment Committee at Bridgewater Associates where he created investment strategies across equities, fixed income, credit, exchange rates, and commodities, including many used in the flagship Pure Alpha fund. He also built and led Ray Dalio’s investment research team for nearly a decade. He’s the author of hundreds of Bridgewater’s widely read Daily Observations and directly counseled some of the world’s foremost policymakers and institutional investors on economic and investing issues.

Bob has also served as an advisor and executive at several startups including CircleUp, an investment company focused on early-stage consumer brands. There he revamped the investment strategy for the company’s $150mln venture funds leveraging big data approaches to improve decision making. He was also the co-founder of GiveWell, a startup charity evaluator which now directs more than $500mln in annual contributions.

Bob holds a BA in History and Science from Harvard.
