Sagar Sambrani — CEO
I trade volatility for a living — but I spend just as much time thinking about judgment, risk, and how people compound over long careers. I’m currently an Executive Director in FX Options Trading at Nomura, based in London. Over the past 14 years, I’ve traded in and led teams across the UK, Singapore, Hong Kong, and India, working closely with some of the world’s most sophisticated financial institutions. My work sits at the intersection of markets, decision-making under uncertainty, and talent development. I’m particularly interested in the real edge that comes from quality judgement, communication, and ownership — lessons that have shaped how I hire, mentor, and build teams today. I hold an MBA from IIM Calcutta (Double Gold Medallist) and a B.Tech from IIT Bombay, but I’m a strong believer that elite outcomes are driven far more by compounding skill and proof of work than by pedigree alone. I regularly share perspectives on markets, careers in finance, and early-career skill building, and I enjoy speaking with students, professionals, and peers who are serious about doing high-quality work over the long term. If you’re interested in markets, risk, leadership, or building durable careers, feel free to reach out at sagar.sambrani@gmail.com / +44 7876604423.
