Using tech to spot credit spreads before the ratings agencies

David Curtis, head of global client business at BondIT, is using AI and advanced technologies to gain an advantage in fixed income investing. In this episode, he explains how his growth stage fintech company is managing roughly $500 billion of client money, and identifying the emergence of credit spreads before the rest of the market can cotton on.  

This appears to be serious bond market innovation. Beyond this, Curtis offers his take on why tech talent is shunning financial services despite the spending power of the banking and asset management giants. For those who invest in credit, and even for those who don’t, there is plenty you can take from Curtis’s musings.
