Curious. If you plan on starting one of these firms, will you make available share loans of shares not commonly available for borrowing? Direct swaps? I'm assuming to accredited investors.

I haven't even picked out an investing strategy yet, much less worried about stuff like that.
Currently I am in the phase of learning how to code quantitative algorithms on large financial data sets in a large corporate financial setting. I already have years of studying quantitative finance.
What I lack is work experience in employing quantitative investing strategies, or real world familiarity of how to make connections and market a new fund to investors.
Thus, my plan is to keep doing what I'm doing for a couple of years, then make the jump to coding/modeling for a quant hedge fund (or else some type of distressed securities private equity shop, which I am also interested in, given that I have some limited experience in private equity), and only then try to make the jump to perhaps trying to take a few guys with me and trying to open my own fund. That might be 3-5 years down the road.
Right now I'm just brainstorming.
