Badruz Jaman
Chief Finance Officer
Badruz Jaman serves as Head of Structured Finance at Arkan Suisse Capital, overseeing the firm’s structured finance platform and the delivery of bespoke credit-enhanced solutions to institutional clients. His role focuses on transaction structuring, innovation in quantitative strategies, and ensuring that each financing solution is both scalable and aligned with institutional standards of governance and execution.
Badruz’s career began at Sequoia Capital in London, where he traded options on European government bonds as a market maker, before going on to establish the firm’s equity derivatives desk for the DAX and Euro Stoxx 50. During this time, he built one of the largest derivatives trading desks by volume and developed advanced algorithmic trading strategies across currencies and equities.
Beyond trading, Badruz pursued advanced qualifications in network security and enterprise infrastructure, becoming one of a small number of triple Cisco CCIE experts globally. His leadership in this field included rolling out contactless payments across Europe and managing cybersecurity infrastructure for multinational operations across 13 offices.
In 2018, he transitioned into principal investing, building an eight-figure real estate portfolio and launching a crypto execution desk. He subsequently worked with a £3 billion family office, advising on real estate development and joint ventures, while simultaneously establishing a regulated multi-strategy hedge fund. As Managing Partner, he expanded the fund to nearly £250 million in assets under management, with strategies ranging from FX to quantitative equities.
At Arkan Suisse Capital, Badruz combines his diverse background in trading, technology, and fund management to structure complex, cross-asset transactions that create value for both issuers and investors. His ability to merge quantitative innovation with disciplined financial engineering positions the firm at the forefront of structured finance, enabling it to deliver sophisticated solutions across markets and asset classes.
