โWe are delighted to announceย Oliver Cooke, Managing Director of North America, will be speaking at QuantMinds International. Taking place in Vienna on 13-17 May, QuantMinds International is now in its 26thย year and is the worldโs leading quant finance event. 400+ experts from banks, buy-side, regulators, Silicon Valley, academia and beyond join together to learn, network and share expertise on the biggest issues facing the industry. Hear the latest breakthrough research and latest technical case studies from some of the worldโs most revered quant thought-leaders.
Oliver will be on the much-anticipated panel,ย Diversity in Quant Finance: Examining the Route to Progress, to discuss how our clients attract, retain and develop diverse talent. Last month, QuantMinds International shared that onlyย 8.3%ย of quant professionals globally are women.ย Oliver will joinย Jessica James, Managing Director atย Commerzbank;ย Katia Babbar, Founder of AI Wealth Technologies; andย Birgit Rudloff, Professor of Mathematics for Economics and Business atย WU.
โQuant is one of the areas where diversity is lacking in regards to female talent,โ said Oliver Cooke about the industry. โWeโve seen some progress in recent years, but thereโs still a lot of work to do. Every single one of our clients is concerned with improving the diversity of their workforce, particularly now that thereโs a wider consensus thatย diverse teams produce better results.โ
