Speaking to Legends
At 22 I graduated from university and decided to set up a crypto hedge fund. I learned everything by doing and after years of 100-hour weeks, progress started to happen. Fast forward, I am a Forbes 30 Under 30 lister, running one of the largest crypto hedge funds in the world and a frequent speaker at top conferences. I have been featured in Bloomberg, Forbes, and many other leading news media outlets. In this podcast, I speak with some of the world's most successful hedge fund managers, investors, and entrepreneurs. We discuss their journey to success, the lessons they've learned along the way, and the mindset they use to achieve greatness.

Episode 2
Francesco Filia, CEO of Fasanara Capital, started his career at J.P. Morgan and Merrill Lynch and then co-founded Fasanara Capital in 2011. In this episode, we learn about Francesco’s days on the sell-side and the underlying principles on which he built his hedge fund. He also talks about why he is bearish on the market but bullish on the economy and why he thinks VaR is a bad measure of risk what is a better one. We close by Francesco’s outlook for the asset management industry.
