Anand Agarwal — Business Development Executive
I am a PhD candidate and an MBA in finance graduate with over 10+ years of extensive experience in high-frequency trading (HFT) and financial markets. My expertise lies in building comprehensive end-to-end trading setups from inception to production within the Asian markets. Throughout my career, I have successfully maintained strong relationships with exchanges, contributing to strategic resource hiring and optimizing infrastructure vendor partnerships to achieve low-latency trading environments from the outset. My role has encompassed a broad spectrum of responsibilities, ensuring firms I’ve collaborated with can thrive and maintain a competitive edge in the marketplace. I have a proven track record of guiding firms through the complexities of trading operations, enabling them to succeed and excel. In addition to my industry experience, I have a passion for research. Recently, I presented my research at the Asia-Pacific Conference on Economics and Finance (APEF), focusing on the "Effect of Indian Rupee Volatility on Asian Exchanges and Opportunities in Asian Currency Derivative Markets." This work provides valuable insights into PnL apportionment and risk mitigation in the FX market.
