At VOLKSWAGEN DOĞUŞ FINANS, I prepared and monitored cash-flow forecasts and reported interest-rate, FX, and liquidity risks. I issued conventional bonds for Finance, Fleet, and Factoring, initiated sukuk borrowing for Fleet, and worked on an ABS transaction for Finance.

Earlier, at ING BANK, I managed a team of four traders across FX and interest-rate trading and coordinated the launch of an FX platform for corporate and retail clients. My work also included developing trading and pricing models and contributing to a PYTHON FX Jump Diffusion model for TRY.
