Matías Giugale
Capital-markets practitioner with a sell-side execution background across FICC and equities, voice and electronic. I trained at J.P. Morgan and on the institutional desk at Grupo SBS — a Top-5 Argentine broker — trading through the 2018–19 sovereign crisis. Since 2020 I have advised funds, fintechs and corporate treasuries independently, across the UK, EU and Latin America.
The scarcest part of that background is first-hand: Argentina's sovereign-risk and macro regime, and EM FX microstructure, where standard execution models break down. I advise hedge funds and PE firms on it directly.
Work
Fractional CFO & strategic finance. Financial models for fundraising and M&A, unit economics, FP&A, and board-level reporting — ongoing or for a defined mandate.
Financial models, built or reviewed. Three-statement, DCF and LBO — built, or checked for the assumptions that don't survive diligence.
Execution & desk advisory. TCA and best-execution frameworks, risk-model design, and execution strategy — with particular depth in FX under low-liquidity conditions.
Argentina & EM markets. Sovereign risk, the FX band regime, capital controls, and the RIGI investment framework; EM FX microstructure and execution. As consultation or retained advisory.
Background
J.P. Morgan — FICC middle office (FX, rates, fixed income): trade lifecycle, daily P&L, risk validation. Grupo SBS, 2018–20 — institutional FICC and equities desk, trading rates, credit, FX and cash equities through currency controls and the debt-restructuring cycle. Independent since 2020, with reporting and models automated in Python, SQL and Power BI. Native English and Spanish.
