Our first cohort of #STEM scholars from the Optiver Foundation Scholarship Programme at the University of Oxford are near to completing their 2023/2024 Master's studies—well done all! 🎓 This initiative, launched in 2022, empowers women from low- and middle-income countries, by providing 30 scholarships over five years for #postgraduate STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) education. Scholars receive full financial aid for their course fees, a stipend for living costs, mentoring and on-course support. We recently spoke with two of our scholars and with Oxford Professor of Statistics, Christl Donnelly, about the positive impact of diversifying STEM fields talent by creating more opportunities for women. Check out their inspiring stories and insights! 🌟 https://lnkd.in/eRxbJwb3 #OptiverFoundation #WomenInSTEM #OxfordUniversity

We have also established a three-step Net Zero strategy, focusing on long-term sustainable solutions to effectively measure, reduce and offset our current and future emissions.

At Optiver, we are thrilled to see the Council of the European Union's recognition of the urgent need for more progress on integrating EU capital markets, including in the area of supervision. We have been quite vocal about our support for more integrated supervision of capital markets through the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA). This recognition is a step in the right direction towards ensuring a more connected and efficient European capital market. It's important to continue the conversation around integrated supervision and the benefits it can bring to capital markets and we hope to see this political recognition reflected in the legislative work during the next institutional cycle in Brussels.
A welcome political signal on CMU
