I started organising the Derivatives Bootcamp in 2022 in Switzerland.
It is a unique program spread over 4 full days where I teach Equity derivatives both from the theoretical point of view but also from the practical point of view.
Students hence benefit from my 20 years experience as a practicioner as Exotic Trader and Head of Financial Engineering
During interviews, banks want to assess the level of understanding of students, and also how they can face new situations or problems. Being successful at those interviews requires solid fundations and appropriate practice, that is what the Derivatives Bootcamp program is designed for, with a particular focus on practice.
Banks do not expect you to know everything, but they select students who know very well what they know! I have started the bootcamp in 2022 with students from the University of St Gallen. Nowadays I run it annually in Zürich for students from ETH, HSG and University of Zürich.
Banks understood quickly the interest for them and pay us a visit on a regularly visit. Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan, Morgan Stanley are usual visitors.
