In this video, we are joined by Mat Cashman, who works at the OCC, the Options Clearing Corporation. Mat’s been in markets for decades, starting in the pits of Chicago's trading floors before moving to London and back to build trading businesses for big firms.

Today, he’s focused on educating the next generation of savvy and more efficient traders. We’ll learn more about his job today, the OCC’s purpose in creating stable and fair markets, and how we can become more aware, mindful, and better traders.

The host of today's conversation is Renato Leonard Capelj (@renatolcapelj), the founder of Physik Invest and managing director at Benzinga, a data and content provider for finance and media companies. Capelj's past works as a journalist at Benzinga include conversations with investor Kevin O’Leary, ARK Invest’s Catherine Wood, FTX’s Sam Bankman-Fried, North Dakota Governor Doug Burgum, Lithuania's Minister of Economy and Innovation Aušrinė Armonaitė, and former Cisco chairman and CEO John Chambers.
