Before starting Alpha Finance Advisors, I worked as an independent consultant and I advised on risk management for this hedge fund seeding platform. As part of my role, I reviewed the fund managers how they invested and managed their funds - and especially their attitude to risk. From this, I designed and built the infrastructure system that allowed monitoring of their trading activities and used this for monitoring and reporting of the funds.
