Faculty and teaching team

Who teaches on this programme

You’ve probably been told faculty are either ivory-tower theorists or market operators who won’t share their playbook. The reality here is more complicated. This team blends academic rigour with blunt, crisis-tested insight. They’ve defended positions in boardrooms, argued with regulators, and helped teams rebuild after shocks. You’ll meet people who know how institutional rules break—because they’ve broken them, fixed them, and written the after-action reports.
Don’t expect platitudes. Sessions are run by people who challenge easy answers, dissect failed models, and expect you to question them. Each brings experience from multiple markets, with roles ranging from quantitative research to operational risk management. Faculty backgrounds include research, consulting, and executive decision-making—each with a different scar and story.

Read on to see how each faculty member combines theory with scars from past market events.
