Description

In this week’s episode we chat with Martin Dinh, Senior Product Manager, Investment Products at the ASX. We chat about how he got started in the markets to the interesting trends he's seen over his time working in the ETF space as well as some insights into an ASX podcast that Martin runs called The Ideas Exchange.
