Keith’s first foray into the world of trading was a back-office role for German Investment Bank Helaba followed by Trade Support at Credit Suisse. From the start, he knew he wanted the front office experience. So he took a leap of faith, and remortgaged his home to start trading his own account when OSTC was still Trading Connections back in 2000.
Gradually, he moved away from trading his own account to working with a group of traders under the (by now) OSTC model. More recently, Keith has moved into the eLearning division of the business. He now helps head up ZISHI – something he feels proud to be involved with as part of OSTC’s diversifying portfolio of brands.

Chris’ role focused on teaching, training and mentoring traders into profitability who were under his remit. Currently, Chris is Co-Head of ZISHI, the central knowledge suite of OSTC.
