The Arjun Global team have recently returned home after concluding our widely successful India Financial Markets Roadshow 2025 earlier this month! With two well-received forums in Mumbai and Gurugram, our roadshow brought together key voices from India’s trading and investment community. We were pleased to welcome participation from proprietary trading firms, hedge funds, exchanges, brokers, and technology providers to discuss the current and future state of the financial markets.
We extend our sincere thanks to our event sponsors – Magmio, GME, and TMX– for their continued support and partnership. Their backing enabled us to deliver a pair of high-quality, content-rich events and create meaningful dialogue across the ecosystem. Continue reading for the key insights shared at these events…
A Focus on India’s Evolving Trading Landscape
India is in the midst of a structural evolution toward more sophisticated trading strategies, driven by advances in technology, increasing institutional participation, and a supportive regulatory outlook. Conversations across both forums reflected a clear recognition of the country’s rapid shift towards low-latency execution, algorithmic trading, and quantitative strategies. These developments are reshaping the market structure and paving the way for deeper international participation.
In Mumbai, our forum featured a series of thought-provoking discussions at The Indus Club. A particularly memorable moment was Sandeep Tyagi’s session, where the Estee Advisors CEO spoke candidly about his career as a trader and his journey in building one of India’s pioneering quant firms. He also introduced his new book on financial literacy, developed in partnership with Go Dharmic, as part of a broader CSR initiative to educate underprivileged youth in financial basics.
High-Level Dialogue Across Both Cities
A consistent highlight of both forums was our Alpha Panel, which brought together senior traders and fund managers to share current views on global and domestic markets. The conversations were open and forward-looking—covering topics from directional macro strategies and relative value trades to the integration of AI and machine learning into trading frameworks.
In Gurugram, the momentum continued with a fireside chat between Russell Robertson (GME) and David Helps (TMX Group), where both shared perspectives on their respective trading careers and spoke to the future of global commodities markets and exchange-led innovation. The event also featured a deep dive into FPGA and ultra-low latency infrastructure with Michal Honek, Business Development Manager at Magmio, highlighting the growing importance of speed and technology in Indian markets.
Looking Ahead
The India Roadshow served as a valuable platform to engage with firms at the forefront of innovation, particularly at a time when India’s markets are expanding their role in the global trading landscape. The feedback and participation we received across both cities were a strong indicator of the community’s appetite for collaboration, insight, and strategic growth.
We now look ahead to our upcoming international events:
