Dear FIX Community Members and FIX NextGen Members,  
 
We are delighted to invite you to an upcoming FIX Trading Community event in Singapore on Wednesday, 3 June at 5:00pm, featuring two distinguished trading professionals from the region:
 
– Kerry Barr, Head of Trading, APAC FICC & EMEA Emerging Markets, BlackRock  
– Khash Surti, Head of Trading, APAC, UBS Asset Management  
 
In this engaging session tailored for young professionals, Khash and Kerry will share their personal career journeys — how they started out in trading, the lessons they learned along the way, and the key attributes they believe define a successful trader today. They will also discuss how trading has evolved over the years, from voice-driven markets to today’s technology-enabled environment, and the importance of traders as integral partners in the investment decision-making process.  
 
Whether you are early in your career or looking to deepen your understanding of the trading landscape, this is a valuable opportunity to gain practical insights from two experienced practitioners at leading global asset managers.  We hope you will join us for what promises to be an insightful and interactive discussion.  
 
Date: Wednesday, 3 June 2026
Time: 5:00pm – 7:30pm 
Location: Blackrock Office, 20 Anson Road, Singapore  
 
Networking drinks will be served before and after the session, offering a chance to connect with peers and industry colleagues.
