[Fredslist] Experienced Bank & Counterparty Credit Analyst seeks new opportunity.

[Corey Bearak]

My friend Steve Digilio, an experienced Bank & Counterparty Credit Analyst (credit and equity analyst in the financial services industry) seeks new opportunity.
I met him through his involvement with a neighborhood youth Football team (Long Island Tomahawks) and later with our involvement with the Glen Oaks Little League.
Steve has worked as what is known as a Counterparty Credit Analyst" for many years. The job involves checking the background and financials of customers his firm trades with. Steve would monitor financial institutions, particularly banks and hedge funds. As an equity analyst Steve would review banks that have stock traded on public markets such as NY Stock Exchange and NASDAQ.
I attach Steve's resume and also include the text below my email signature for your viewing convenience.  Please contact Steve direct with any leads at digilios at yahoo.com.  Thank you!
Best.
-Corey
