Charon Special Situations Group (CSSG or Charon SSG) is an independent investment research firm focused on covering quantitative and event-driven strategies for institutional investors. Comprised of undergraduate students from the Georgia Institute of Technology, our team works to produce the highest quality investment research and share our publications with financial professionals in Atlanta and New York.

We focused on covering event-driven and quantitative opportunities, and our work culminated in a data dashboard that we deployed at Rockefeller Capital Management.
