Mark Shipman is a highly successful investor and has made a personal fortune from backing his own judgement with his own money. He has been in the financial industry since 1979.

In 1990, he left the City to establish one of the UK’s first hedge fund management companies and the following year achieved personal success by winning the World Professional Futures Trading Championship.

In addition to participating in long-term investment trends, Mark also consults to numerous City institutions including banks, brokers, hedge funds, headhunters, venture capitalists and even the UK financial regulator.
