That went against his core values of making things better for others and taking conscious action to do so. His current endeavors are aimed at accomplishing that with training and providing working examples in one's own life.

Peter and Chris start off by discussing the evolution of equity markets, Chris tells the story of the formation of the NASDAQ and the first flash crash.

Chris concludes the conversation by explaining why the bond market is at an inflection point.

How is it that stocks are traded on electronic exchanges in the blink of an eye but bonds still trade over-the-counter by phone and sometimes even by fax? Today we discuss one of the most pervasive mysteries of market structure with Chris White, the former Goldman Sachs executive who's now CEO of ViableMkts, and his old boss, Les Seff, COO at AIMPaaS LLC, to discover why bond trading remains so darn old-fashioned despite numerous attempts to pull it into the 21st century. Looking back at history, we can see a pattern to market modernization that was initiated by the OTC equity market almost 50 years ago. Can this history provide us with insights that can put fixed income markets on a path to modernizing?
