RULEMATCH Spot On
Rewiring capital markets - Omer Suleman (Haruko)
When crypto and digital assets start to spread across capital markets, some things have to change. Others do not... For banks, hedge funds, asset managers and others, some fundamentals hold true, regardless of whether capital markets move wholly or partially on-chain. To serve them - and change the industry in the process - Omer Suleman's Haruko brings a full suite of portfolio and risk management tooling. Long years of experience at household names like Goldman Sachs, Deutsche Bank and Citi have given him and his cofounders a view of what is needed. As he explains on RULEMATCH Spot On with Ian Simpson, that is just one piece of the puzzle.
