ONLINE TRAINING

For students and professionals.

Expert-Led

With 23 years in derivatives — from exotic trading at Goldman Sachs to leading financial engineering globally — I designed this program to reflect real front-office work.

No-Compromise

The Institute was built to meet the standards I’d expect from someone joining my own team — rigorous, focused, and uncompromising.

Market Ready

I work directly in the industry, which ensures the program reflects the real strategies, products, and market trends that are actively traded and in demand today.

Connected

With over 20 years in senior roles, I’ve built strong ties with trading, structuring, and sales desks — bringing real insights and access that go beyond anystandard course.
