Walter started his career as a FX trader at the Standard Bank of Angola. As the former Head of Market Development at Angola’s Capital Markets Commission, in 2014, he oversaw the establishment of Bolsa de Dívida e Valores de Angola (BODIVA) - the Angolan Stock Exchange - which changed the landscape of the financial system in Angola, fostering investment and long-term growth. In 2014, while Walter was Executive Director, Bodiva launched two secondary public debt trading markets (a treasury securities registration market and a wholesale treasury securities market). He was previously General Director of the Debt Management Office at the Ministry of Finance, Republic of Angola before serving as CEO of the Angolan Stock Exchange. Walter holds a Bachelor Degree in Business and Economics and a Master’s Degree in International Finance (with distinction, first in his class). He completed the IFC-Milken Institute Capital Markets Program at the George Washington University School of Business as part of the inaugural cohort in 2017, and interned with Millennium Management as part of the program.
