What I'm looking for
I’m an Investment Banking Operations professional with over 10 years of experience specializing in FX & OTC Derivatives and Prime Brokerage. I focus on end-to-end trade lifecycle management, including trade validation, affirmations, allocations, reconciliations, and settlements.
Across cash and position accounts, I resolve complex trade breaks, STP issues, and reconciliation discrepancies while ensuring strict regulatory compliance. I’ve also executed FX settlements for Spot, Forward, Options, and Swaps, meeting cut-offs and supporting operational risk mitigation.
I work closely with global trading desks, settlements, and internal stakeholders to improve workflow efficiency and achieve SLA compliance. I’m skilled in P&L attribution and in proactive, detail-driven issue resolution that strengthens operational controls.
I’ve worked with industry-standard platforms including Calypso, Traiana, Bloomberg, and MS Excel, applying process optimization to reduce delays and improve reliability. I’m now aiming to bring significant value to an Investment Operations Specialist role.
