Piyush Kumar — Business Development Executive

I'm Piyush Kumar, currently pursuing a Bachelor of Technology in Mathematics and Computing at IIT Ropar. My journey into the financial markets began in my first year, driven by curiosity about personal finance—what started as exploration quickly turned into a lifelong passion for markets, strategy development, and alpha generation. With a strong foundation in Finance, mathematics and problem-solving, I naturally gravitated toward the complexities of equity and derivative markets. During my second year, I became an active member of FinCOM (Finance and Quant Club), where I honed my skills in quantitative research, finance and trading. In my third year, I took on a leadership role as the Secretary of the club, guiding initiatives, and organizing a lot of events related to Non-core domains. I interned as a trading intern at Futures First, where I gained a lot of exposure in global fixed-income and derivative markets. The internship not only deepened my practical understanding but also helped me secure a Pre-Placement Offer (PPO) from the firm. I'm eagerly looking forward to joining them as a full-time trader in July 2026.

Always open to collaborating with like-minded professionals in quantitative finance, trading, and financial research. I am committed to pursuing my passion for trading in financial markets for a lifetime.🤞
