QED Investors

QED Investors is an Alexandria, Virginia-based venture capital firm founded in 2007 by Nigel Morris, the co-founder of Capital One, and Frank Rotman, dedicated exclusively to financial technology investing across all geographies and financial services sectors. The firm invests from seed through Series B stages with initial checks from $3 million to $15 million and has backed more than 200 financial technology companies. QED brings genuine operational depth from the Capital One experience: the partners understand credit, risk management, and financial product development at a granular level.
