Brendan Walsh is the driving force behind AlphaInvestors. A veteran City of London macro portfolio manager and occasional author, he built, managed, and marketed some of the UK & Europe’s largest institutional funds. From the Credit Crunch to COVID‑19 and everything in between, he’s traded most assets you’ve heard of and more you haven’t. Today he runs his own capital and shares the institutional playbook with a private community.
Over more than two decades, Brendan has steered portfolios through boom and bust, managing over $15 billion across Forex and Macro strategies. He is an avid student of history, markets and psychology, and has traded almost every asset class under the sun — sometimes making millions, sometimes losing them, and always living to tell the tale. He has a PhD in Geophysics from the University of Edinburgh, is a certified Professional Risk Manager (PRM), and was inducted into the EQ Derivatives Magazine Hall of Fame in 2019.
Beyond the numbers, Brendan mentors and coaches upcoming traders, serves as an advisor to a Gen AI startup, and relentlessly pursues a deeper understanding of what moves markets. He loves risk, weirdness and, oddly enough, honey badgers. Away from the screens, he’s a husband, father and lover of music and the outdoors.
Whether you’re refining your investment process or starting from scratch, Brendan offers bespoke coaching and consultation. He’ll review anything you send in advance so your session is as impactful as possible.
