Since Coleman Fung founded OpenLink in 1992, the company has become a leading developer of financial and energy trading and risk management software solutions with broad market functionality.
Frustrated with traditional trading and risk management technologies as a derivatives trader, Fung formed OpenLink to challenge market conventions with a robust, open, and cross-market product. As the initial business architect, he laid the foundation for a robust environment that seamlessly supports front- through back-office requirements for financial and energy/commodity markets. He also marketed his vision to and developed strategic partnerships with a wide variety of customers, from traditional banking institutions, insurance firms and corporate treasuries to energy companies and utilities. Under his direction, the diverse requirements of OpenLink's strategic partners have reaffirmed and redefined the leadership position of the company's core products.
Prior to establishing OpenLink, Fung was one of Fuji Capital Markets Corporation's (now known as Mizuho Capital Markets) founding members of the trading team and helped build its trading infrastructure. Previous jobs include positions with Chemical Bank's product development and derivative trading groups, and Solomon Brothers' Bond Portfolio Analysis Group. Fung also served three years active duty in the US Army.
He holds a Masters degree from Stanford University and a Bachelors degree from the University of California, Berkeley. |
