As Global Head of Equity Derivatives Research at Bank of America Merrill Lynch, Ben Bowler is helping the firm's institutional client base understand the complex risk dynamics that impose themselves on today's markets. His process often leads him across asset classes, looking for linkages and developing stress indices that may provide early warning signs for US equity markets.Our discussion first considers the recent SPX vol event, which, from a short-term severity standpoint, Ben puts in a category with the GFC and Covid. He further makes the point that since the Tariff uncertainty was self-imposed, it was as if we were in the midst of the Covid crisis but already had the vaccine in hand.We then explore the work that Ben and his team have done on the concept of fragility. Here, he argues that the speed and magnitude of vol spikes, flash crashes and tantrum in markets has increased. In fact, in US single stocks, he suggests that fragility is at an all-time high with the reaction to earnings faster and more violent. Two factors may be playing a role. First, there is substantial crowding in certain risk exposures, like large cap tech. And second, liquidity provision, increasingly electronic in nature and sometimes rapidly withdrawn during times of stress.Lastly, we discuss the history of innovation and how investors have generally pulled forward the benefits of path-breaking new technologies, leading to asset price bubbles. Here, Ben is thinking about right tail risk and how important optionality may be in hedging the risk that the AI bubble could inflate substantially.I hope you enjoy this episode of the Alpha Exchange, my conversation with Ben Bowler.

In this episode of Sloanies Talking with Sloanies, host Christopher Reichert, MOT '04, sits down with Raafet Azzouz, SFMBA '24, to explore his remarkable journey from a small town in Tunisia to global finance and entrepreneurship. Azzouz shares how his early love for mathematics and humanities shaped his academic path through France, ultimately leading to senior roles at major financial institutions like JP Morgan and Bank of America Merrill Lynch. Despite his successful Wall Street career, he felt the need for a deeper sense of purpose, prompting his decision to step back, pursue impact-focused ventures, and enroll in the MIT Sloan Fellows MBA program.Azzouz speaks candidly about the challenges and strengths of the immigrant experience—resilience, adaptation, and resourcefulness—which inspired his New Colossus Project. This initiative tells the stories of first-generation immigrant trailblazers in America, aiming to reframe the narrative around immigration and highlight its immense contributions to innovation and entrepreneurship. He also discusses how MIT Sloan became a space for personal transformation, where he stepped outside his comfort zone through courses in leadership, improvisation, and social media, all while reflecting on his identity and future direction.Throughout the conversation, Azzouz emphasizes the value of risk-taking, lifelong learning, and giving back to community. His evolving definition of success now centers on impact, connection, and legacy rather than titles or accolades. This episode is a powerful reflection on navigating change, finding one's voice, and the importance of institutions like MIT Sloan in shaping not just careers, but lives.Support the showThanks for listening!

Keller's narrative is not just a story of professional success but a testament to the power of long-term relationships and personal growth.The dialogue shifts focus to the importance of teamwork and leadership in the context of sales and investment. Keller's approach to leadership—emphasizing team orientation, individual support, and a strategic balance between generalists and specialists—highlights the critical role of collaborative efforts in achieving sales goals. This approach is particularly evident in T. Rowe Price's management of its extensive portfolio, which necessitates a nuanced understanding of market demands and client needs.Keller's insights into the sales process are both practical and strategic, offering listeners a glimpse into the complexities of fund distribution and the importance of aligning sales activities with overarching business objectives. His emphasis on leveraging Customer Relationship Management (CRM) tools underscores the technological backbone supporting modern sales strategies, facilitating precise tracking and efficient management of sales activities.Moreover, Keller's leadership philosophy is profoundly human-centric, focusing on empowerment, accountability, and the recognition of individual contributions. His belief in transparent communication and setting realistic expectations serves as a guiding principle for nurturing a productive and motivated sales force.This episode not only provides a deep dive into the mechanics of sales and distribution in the investment world but also celebrates the human elements that drive success in this field. Listeners will come away with a richer understanding of the strategies that underpin effective sales leadership, the challenges of managing a diverse portfolio, and the personal qualities that distinguish exceptional leaders in the competitive landscape of investment management.Through Keller's experiences and perspectives, The Rainmaker Podcast once again affirms its commitment to offering valuable insights to sales professionals, enriching their understanding of the industry's dynamics and equipping them with the knowledge to navigate their careers with confidence and strategic acumen.

Show host Gene Tunny interviews Marcos Buscaglia, former head of the Latin America economics team at Bank of America Merrill Lynch, and author of the book "Beyond the ESG Portfolio, How Wall Street Can Help Democracies Survive." Buscaglia argues that, through their investment choices, many investors have inadvertently been supporting autocratic regimes, and he calls for a change in investment practices. Tune in to this thought-provoking episode to learn more about the ultimate impacts of our investments and how Wall Street can contribute to the survival of democracies.Please get in touch with us with any questions, comments and suggestions by emailing us at contact@economicsexplored.com or sending a voice message via https://www.speakpipe.com/economicsexplored. What's covered in EP225Introduction to the episode. (0:03)Aligning investments with values and democratic growth. (4:32)Autocratic regimes, EU funding, and corruption in Hungary. (9:41)Investing in emerging markets while avoiding autocratic countries. (22:31)Economic sanctions, autocratic regimes, and investment strategies. (28:06)Economics, democracy, and the role of finance.TakeawaysInvesting in autocratic regimes can inadvertently support and strengthen those regimes.ESG (environmental, social, governance) investing should also consider whether countries are democratic.ESG metrics and indices currently do not prioritize democracy as a factor.There are limited investment options that exclude autocratic countries, but investor demand can drive change in this area.Sanctions can be an effective tool in limiting financial support to autocratic regimes.Links relevant to the conversationMarcos Buscaglia's book: Beyond the ESG Portfolio: How Wall Street Can Help Democracies Survivehttps://www.amazon.com/Beyond-ESG-Portfolio-Democracies-Survive/dp/1265115605Thanks to Obsidian Productions for mixing the episode and to the show's sponsor, Gene's consultancy business www.adepteconomics.com.au. Full transcripts are available a few days after the episode is first published at www.economicsexplored.com.
