From the article:

“You won’t find Epstein’s transactions written about on Bloomberg or talked about in the trading rooms. ‘The trading desks don’t seem to know him. It’s unusual for animals that big not to leave any footprints in the snow,’ says a high-level investment manager.”

For a man reputed to have been managing at least $15 billion—all for billionaires—it would seem all but impossible that Epstein wouldn’t be known to the Wall Street trading desks. Additionally, Epstein reportedly employed no portfolio managers or analysts, telling people that he handled the entire investment side of the business himself, with all other employees being purely administrative.

Epstein, for reasons unknown, was also reported to be highly selective when it came to his clients.

That's like running a construction company, but not having construction workers.

More likely:

He took that mountain of dirty loot and dumped it into an ETF, or something, using the rest of his time to bringing in new girls, celebrities, and new blackmail victims.

Biiiiig genius Epstein doesn't crunch numbers at all, doesn't research science, etc.

More likely, IMHO, that Epstein wasn’t the one in charge, was running a honey trap for one or more state actors. And money wasn’t the objective. The payoffs were likely favors from the people being blackmailed. Votes, decisions, etc...

If Epstein was handling anybody’ money, he would be required by law to be a broker/dealer registered with the SEC & FINRA (Financial Industry Regulatory Authority

One could check him out with both agencies (if he is legit)

records of any securities transactions he executed for anyone besides himself are required to be saved for several years.
