Pierpoint Financial Consulting, a boutique consultancy focused on securities finance and collateral management, has partnered with repo industry expert Jeff Kidwell to take the lead on its repo courses.
Kidwell, who is based in Florida, is well-known by the securities financing industry for his expert knowledge of global and domestic repo and securities lending. He has held roles at Morgan Stanley and Cantor Fitzgerald and was the founder of AVM, LP’s Direct Repo.
Working alongside Roy Zimmerhansl, practice lead at Pierpoint, Kidwell will be responsible for the curriculum and teaching the tailored training on the repo courses.
Kidwell has conducted repo schools internally for his prior broker/dealer employers, and publicly for several industry organizations and regulators.
Commenting on the partnership, Zimmerhansl says: “With many repo sectors forced to adapt to COVID-19 changes, with some of those sectors moving towards more in-house, remote trading, and risk and collateral management, and away from broker/dealer management.
"What better way to be trained than through these bespoke training courses offered by Pierpoint Consulting, featuring industry experts like Kidwell.”
