Michael Shirley

Mike joined OSTC in 2003 and has risen up the ranks to become our Head of Trading. From the get-go, he embraced the business’ entrepreneurial spirit by establishing his own group in OSTC that specialised in trading interest rates and commodities.

Previously a Money Markets Trader at Santander, Mike gained global experience trading in New York, Hong Kong and Sydney.

With a deep interest in the finance sector’s future prospects, Mike recently completed a course in Financial Technology and Future Commerce at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. He considers setting up OSTC Swansea, with its successful 45+ strong trading team, as his greatest achievement to date.
