Despite being French and a PhD, Ron can be a great guy. He has spent the last ten years building world-class risk systems, successfully supporting tens of billions of dollars of assets. Prior to co-founding PrairieSmarts, Ron was the Director of Portfolio Modeling for TD Ameritrade where he developed and led the implementation of its real-time
Portfolio Margin system, as well as the entirety of its internal stress-testing systems. Ron also has extensive experience with bank treasury risk systems and quantitative challenges. Ron wrote his dissertation on what are now known as “Black Swan Events”, and how classic risk models underestimate true risk, three years before the media started writing about it. Ron is an expert on topics such as Quantitative Risk Modeling, Heavy-Tailed distributions and Risk Management, and is passionate about helping traders and investors avoid the classic pitfalls that can lead to career-ending losses.
