Message

At Purple Group Limited, I monitor and manage real-time exposure across international markets, making time-sensitive trading decisions and executing hedges within defined risk parameters.

I investigate trading exceptions and pricing discrepancies, assess exchange announcements and corporate actions, and report material risks and daily exposure changes to senior stakeholders.

At HSBC Philippines, I prepared Market Risk and VaR reports and monitored risk limits. Earlier, I supported hedge fund and mutual fund accounting at Wells Fargo EGS Philippines – GFS and JPMorgan Chase & Co., and generated financial data and research at FactSet Philippines.
