Lisa Seim obtained a license in International Law and Finance from the University of Vienna in Austria in 1983. Lisa’s career began in the treasury and trading department of Creditanstalt-Bankverein, the first
Austrian bank to open a branch in the USA. Lisa sat on the funding desk; issued commercial paper, set repo rates and learned how to trade currencies. Those were the days when risk and transparency were not at the forefront of anyone’s mind. Lisa traveled between Vienna and New York and eventually worked her way up to senior trader.
In 1986 Lisa moved to Frankfurt, Germany where she traded currencies at an Australian bank, a French bank and later for a large American bank. She traveled to Singapore, Hong-Kong and throughout Europe to build on her relationships within the foreign exchange community.
Lisa moved back to New York and traded currencies until 1995 when she decided to take a ten-year hiatus to raise her three children. In 1999 Lisa and her children accompanied her husband back to Vienna, Austria where he was hired to run foreign exchange trading for a large US broker-dealer.
Lisa returned to the workforce in early 2005 becoming a Capital Markets recruiter to slowly immerse herself back in the Capital Markets world. In the spring of 2006, at the dawn of electronic trading platforms, Lisa was recruited herself as a sales manager to build out the foreign exchange liquidity for wholesale banks. The market was thirsty for new, faster systems and she was lured to another firm in 2008 just as the market was crashing. Lisa decided to take an assignment with a middle -office consulting firm that focused on a major component of trade workflows; hedge accounting and risk management post-trade.
