Episode 479: Citadel Securities President Jim Esposito on Market Making & the Future of Finance

Financial markets have transformed dramatically, shifting from noisy trading floors to lightning-fast, technologically-driven platforms.

Following that, Citadel Securities appointed Jim Esposito—former Goldman Sachs executive with nearly 30 years of experience—as its new President. Nearing a year into his tenure with Citadel Securities, Jim goes Inside the ICE House to discuss what differentiates the firm, it's role in helping maintain efficient and orderly markets, and how he, CEO Peng Zhao and Founder Ken Griffin are plotting its future.
