UBS Phillips & Drew

1988 - 1989

A paid internship over 12 months that allowed me join the UBS rotation program to try out a variety of roles where I gained a wide range of experience, and explored multiple opportunities. Started at a Bond trading desk as a junior using Excel and then due to my success was moved to extending a Bonds Analysis system (called Bonds Gemini) used by Bond dealers to provided real-time update of positions and limits so as to allow accurate risk monitoring.
