Jerome has over 30 years' experience in international financial markets, with special expertise in Relative Value Trading. Jerome moved to Hong Kong in the early 1990s to build JPMorgan's equity derivatives business in APAC. This was one of the most successful and profitable businesses on the street. He then went on to run volatility trading across Asia Pacific for Lehman Brothers based in Tokyo. He also developed the Global Relative Value Team at BIP in Paris, an in-house hedge fund later taken over by Dresdner Bank. Jerome is an engineering graduate of Ecole Centrale de Paris. Paul Frost-Smith, CEO of Argentium, commented: "I am so pleased to be working with Jerome again, after our time at JPMorgan together. To have one of the inventors of options and skew trading running our books is a huge endorsement of the opportunities that the crypto markets currently present."
