Andrew Bang went from serving as a captain in the US Army to a successful career in investment management. The West Point and Cornell MBA graduate now works as an advisor at SECOR Asset Management, and joins Warrior Money to share his perspective on making the transition from military service into finance. Bang also reflects on the scaling issues currently faced by the Department of Defense, the importance of public-private partnerships, and why he continues to give back to his country through veteran-focused organizations.

Yahoo Finance's Warrior Money, hosted by former Congressman Patrick Murphy and veteran investor Dan Kunze, is dedicated to uplifting the financial well-being of military veterans transitioning into civilian life. Each week, an array of guests—from everyday vets to high-ranking government officials—offer insight on successfully making the leap from service to business.
