Get to know Rajib
What keeps you curious?
How markets, technology and regulation keep reshaping one another, and what that means for the next generation of trading systems.
What makes algorithmic trading interesting even after years in the industry?
The fact that there is never a final model. Markets evolve, participants adapt and every edge eventually forces you to ask a better question.
What kind of problems do you enjoy solving?
Problems that sit across strategy, markets, technology and people, where the answer cannot be found within a single function.
What has building a trading business taught you?
That good strategies matter, but enduring businesses are built on strong systems, disciplined risk and people who can keep evolving.
How do you think about risk as a CEO?
Risk is not something to eliminate. It has to be understood, priced and managed deliberately across every decision the firm makes.
What do you enjoy about teaching and speaking about algorithmic trading?
Explaining an idea forces you to examine it from first principles. The best conversations often challenge assumptions you did not realise you were making.
What do you value most in people you work with?
Intellectual curiosity, ownership and the confidence to question an idea regardless of where it comes from.
