CONSHOHOCKEN, PA — PPB Capital Partners has announced a new partnership with Cambrian Asset Management, Inc., a California-based quantitative investment firm specializing in digital assets. The collaboration makes Cambrian’s institutional-grade, risk-managed digital asset strategy available to registered investment advisors (RIAs) and private wealth firms through PPB’s Capital Markets Solutions platform.
“Digital assets represent one of the most dynamic frontiers in modern investing,” said Brendan Lake, founder and CEO of PPB Capital Partners. “The challenge for investors is balancing opportunity with risk. Partnering with Cambrian allows advisors to offer digital asset exposure without compromising downside protection.”
The partnership was facilitated through a peer introduction from a $3 billion New York-based RIA that previously allocated directly to Cambrian. The move allows Cambrian to extend its reach into PPB’s network of private wealth investors, reinforcing the firm’s position as a bridge between institutional investment expertise and the growing digital asset space.
Cambrian’s leadership team brings deep institutional experience. CEO and co-CIO Martin Green previously led a tech company acquired by Google; co-CIO Jay Posner served as a portfolio manager at Millennium Management; and president Tony Fenner-Leitão was formerly CEO of quantitative investment firm Winton.
Cambrian’s strategy employs a fully systematic, rules-based approach designed to capture the upside potential of digital assets while mitigating volatility. According to the firm, its disciplined framework has delivered returns exceeding traditional equities while maintaining comparable downside risk.
“Most investors understand the potential in digital assets, but few have access to strategies that approach the space with institutional discipline,” said Fenner-Leitão. “In working with PPB, we’re excited to reach a broader audience of wealth investors who are looking for intelligent, risk-managed ways to participate in this evolving asset class.”
PPB’s peer-driven platform aligns investment opportunities with RIA priorities, ensuring that each strategy meets the due diligence standards of its advisory network. “It’s important that our strategies align directly with RIA priorities,” said Evan Deussing, head of distribution at PPB. “Working with Cambrian is a clear example of that approach in action.”
Both firms share a belief that digital assets can enhance portfolio performance when managed with discipline and transparency. Their collaboration reflects a broader trend: as digital finance matures, institutional frameworks and risk controls are becoming essential to unlocking its long-term potential for wealth managers and their clients.
