In his career, he has worked in all these areas. He has first hand experience of bond sales (at SBCI, London), derivatives sales and financial engineering (at Tokai Bank Europe, Tokyo) and corporate marketing (at Chemical Bank). In addition he has worked in credit and control functions (at Lloyds Bank). He has priced and sold many structured bonds, swaps and options, and created solutions to clients' hedging needs and views on the market. John is primarily responsible for the training material provided by Renaissance Training. His training in English literature and language at Oxford University enables him to write in a clear and intuitive fashion, without losing the rigour of mathematical accuracy. The reference material and cases studies are an integral part of the training service provided. He has developed many models on spreadsheets which are used to such purposes as valuing swaps, pricing options, calculating duration, identifying arbitrages and estimating value-at-risk. His mathematical and computer modelling skills have been developed in over ten years of banking experience, and through his MBA education at London Business School. Renaissance Training Group provides specialised financial training to banks, securities companies, software houses, corporates, accountants, lawyers and derivatives exchanges all over the world. |
