About Christopher Knight

The career path started in Grain Trading in September 1985 in the City of London, evolving into Fixed Income trading ultimately specialising in Emerging Markets Sovereign Debt "Market Making" over a period of 20 years (17yrs in London, 3yrs in New York City) before deciding upon a change of lifestyle to start up a business enterprise in July 2005 which involved Residential Property, a Commercial Office and a Horse Livery Yard. The businesses were launched successfully in partnership with my then-wife which allowed for energies to be redirected towards a new business endeavour at Delphi Derivatives Ltd from March 2007. In April 2014 I embarked on a return to Emerging Markets Credit.
