Senior fixed income and treasury trader with 24+ years optimizing liquidity, repo execution, and portfolio risk.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Senior Fixed Income and Multi-Asset Trading professional with 24+ years of experience in investment banking, treasury, and liquidity management across FX, fixed income, equities, and derivatives markets. I’ve managed portfolios exceeding €500M and execute high-volume institutional strategies, with daily turnover exceeding €100M. I also develop trading desk initiatives focused on liquidity optimisation, risk control, and operational efficiency.
In my current role, I expanded repo activity through bespoke OTC and funding structures tailored to institutional counterparties, and I improved post-trade processing efficiency—reducing settlement breaks by 15% through tighter coordination across risk and operations. Previously, I grew the REPO book by 50% in 12 months, reduced borrowing costs by 10–20%, and built internal margin and risk control systems that cut margin processing time by 60%. I bring a structured, data-driven approach to market execution and balance sheet optimisation, partnering closely with risk, compliance, and operations to ensure regulatory alignment and smoother trade lifecycles.
