Vee Leung Phan (@TrackRecordAsia) is the Founder of TrackRecord Asia and former Head of Trading across multiple divisions for Deutsche Bank and Morgan Stanley.

Vee made his way into the industry by chance, after realising there was no real opportunity back home during the 1997 Asia Financial Crisis. Fast forward 13+ years and Vee had co-founded a hedge fund, run multiple divisions for both Deutsche Bank and Morgan Stanley, and co-founded a machine learning tech startup.

TrackRecord Asia is a financial training academy for trading teams in banks and professional traders - designed to teach you the frameworks learnt in his days across first-class institutions.

Vee is a great guy, with a wealth of experience across the industry. This is a great episode where we cover:

• Uni life in Manchester and how he got into trading
• Lessons learnt from his mother
• Career path and insight into the industry
• His trading training framework
• The biggest mistake in the business
