Head of credit Eur IG and.CHF AXA IM

Day 2 | 16th October

1:45 PM Oxford-Style Debate Will traders of the future be coders or pure strategists?

Join a dynamic and thought-provoking debate where industry experts challenge conventional wisdom on the evolving role of traders. As automation, AI, and algorithmic strategies reshape financial markets, do traders need to become software engineers, or will AI take over coding, allowing human traders to focus purely on strategy and relationships?

 

FOR: The traders of the future will be software engineers first—those who don’t code will be left behind.

 Louis Gargour, CIO & Managing Partner, LNG Capital 


AGAINST: Coding will become obsolete for traders as AI automates execution, bringing the industry back to relationship-driven trading.

Valerie Nannette-Dan, Senior Trader, AXA Investment Managers
