Research Team
The Fordham FinTech Network’s Research Team aims to dissect complex systems within the FinTech space, and present them to the public in a clear and comprehensive manner. The Research Team is currently broken down into two cohorts in order to develop more detailed and specific findings: Blockchain and Cryptocurrencies & Algorithmic Trading.
Current Head of Research: Raymond Zheng (‘20)
The Algorithmic Trading Group
The Algorithmic Trading Group focuses their research on the impact of algorithmic trading on financial institutions and retail customers. Specifically, this group will analyze different trading strategies and trading pairs, exchanges & liquidities, dissecting the orderbook, and the ethics of algorithmic trading practices. Furthermore, they will also review ‘good’ algorithms and what makes the implementation of an algorithm successful in the retail sales and trading space.
