- **Event Description**: Hosted by: The Arditti Center for Risk Management in cooperation with the College of Law and NIBAAbout this EventEver wonder how people actually get into trading or the futures industry? This panel features DePaul alumni who went from sitting where you are now to working at introducing brokerages, FCMs, law firms specializing in derivatives, and commodity trading firms. They’ll break down how they discovered these careers, what it took to land their first roles, and what they do day-to-day (beyond what you see in movies). You’ll also hear how the futures industry attracts people from a wide range of academic backgrounds - not just finance and economics, but also data analytics, computer science, engineering, mathematics, law, and even communications - reflecting how interdisciplinary today’s markets have become. Whether you're interested in trading, risk management, compliance, or just curious about finance careers you haven't heard much about, this is your chance to ask real questions and get honest answers from people who were in your shoes not too long ago. No suits-and-buzzwords presentation, just real talk about breaking into an industry most business students haven’t heard much about.
