\u201cMoney\u201d is a quintessential progressive rock song, so it may be no coincidence that the British band is Javier Domenech\u2019s favorite. Domenech is Treasury Director at Scotiabank Mexico and his passions are music and finance.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMusic has a lot to do with math. There\u2019s a point where they intersect, but to me, it\u2019s more of an opportunity to relax, enjoy and think,\u201d explains Domenech, who also plays guitar in a band named Overdrive.<\/p>\n<p>An admirer of Roger Waters and David Gilmour \u2014 former Pink Floyd members \u2014 he says that when you work in a stressful environment like finance, you need rest to keep your mind clear.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn finance, when there\u2019s a lot of pressure, you stop functioning well, then you make bad decisions and you stress out even more. It\u2019s a vicious cycle. But when you\u2019re relaxed, you\u2019re more productive and make better decisions because you\u2019re thinking much more clearly,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking through videoconference surrounded by acoustic and electric guitars, Domenech recalls picking up the guitar at age 17 and has always taken classes to master his technique.<\/p>\n<p>On that note, Domenech observes that to devote yourself to finance, you have to keep studying and seeking opportunities: \u201cSometimes the lack of opportunities open to you is frustrating, but with a clear goal and resilience, you will achieve anything you set your mind to.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI really like the saying, \u2018Luck is what happens when preparation meets opportunity.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n                    <\/div>\n    <\/section>\n<\/div>\n\n<div  class=\"bbg-row-container\">\n    <section class=\"bbg-row  text--black row-padding--top-none row-padding--bottom-none bbg-row--full-bg-bleed\" data-anchor='row-69ff20c503735'>\n        \n        \n        <div\n            class=\"bbg-row--content\"\n                    >\n            \n            <p><div\n    class=\"bbg-column bbg-column--width-2\"\n    style=\"\"\n    >\n    \n<\/div><div\n    class=\"bbg-column bbg-column--width-8\"\n    style=\"\"\n    >\n    <p><div\n\tclass=\"bb-wysiwyg\"\n\t\t>\n\t<p><strong>Never stop learning<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<div\n\tclass=\"bb-wysiwyg\"\n\t\t>\n\t<p>For example, when he was finishing his degree in Industrial Engineering. Domenech got into a program run by a bank called Banamex at the time, where he received a scholarship to study for an MBA in the U.S. \u201cI was drawn to it because I wouldn\u2019t have been able to afford it otherwise,\u201d he states.<\/p>\n<p>In that graduate program at the University of Michigan, he became interested in all things related to the markets. However, it wasn\u2019t the best time to look for work in the field.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI returned to Mexico at the wrong time, because I finished my master\u2019s degree in 1995, precisely when the \u2018tequila crisis\u2019 (also known in his country as \u2018the December mistake\u2019) broke out,\u201d he remembers.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBefore finishing my degree, I came to Mexico for a few days. Right as I was about to board the plane, I grabbed the Wall Street Journal and read that the [Mexican] peso had depreciated so much that when I went back to Michigan to finish my degree, everything seemed very expensive to me. At the time, I now had to multiply by seven instead of multiplying by three,\u201d he recalls.<\/p>\n<p>Upon returning to his country, he worked in portfolio recovery, one of the fastest-growing fields back then due to the state of the economy in the aftermath of the crisis.<\/p>\n<p>Although it seems that much of what he did and learned at that time had nothing to do with what he does today, the fact is that it all helped him in his daily life when he began holding higher positions.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor example, when I was in corporate banking, I had to analyze bank balance sheets, which are very important in order to understand the bank\u2019s accounts and bottom line,\u201d he explains. \u201cNow I am surprised to find that the same things I thought were a waste of time eventually became very important.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Domenech has taken advantage of opportunities not only in his professional life, but also in terms of his passion for music: \u201cA few years ago, I logged into the Bloomberg Terminal\u00ae and saw that David Gilmour had announced a new show at Radio City Music Hall. The day I read the news was my birthday and the concert was coming up in a few months, right on my wedding anniversary. I said to myself, \u2018this was too much of a coincidence!\u2019 so I bought tickets and we went to the concert,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n                    <\/div>\n    <\/section>\n<\/div>\n\n<div  class=\"bbg-row-container\">\n    <section class=\"bbg-row  text--black row-padding--top-none row-padding--bottom-none bbg-row--full-bg-bleed\" data-anchor='row-69ff20c505b35'>\n        \n        \n        <div\n            class=\"bbg-row--content\"\n                    >\n            \n            <p><div\n    class=\"bbg-column bbg-column--width-2\"\n    style=\"\"\n    >\n    \n<\/div><div\n    class=\"bbg-column bbg-column--width-8\"\n    style=\"\"\n    >\n    <p><div\n\tclass=\"bb-wysiwyg\"\n\t\t>\n\t<p><strong>Learning from great people<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<div\n\tclass=\"bb-wysiwyg\"\n\t\t>\n\t<p>As much as he admires and follows his favorite musicians or tries to improve his guitar technique, Domenech makes sure to have some \u201cgurus\u201d in the financial world.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI especially admire people who have moved from academia into business, such as Hal Varian (an American economist who specializes in microeconomics and information economy), who is not exactly in my field, but he taught me at the University of Michigan and is now Chief Economist at Google. He is someone who has created great value by applying brainpower to the industry,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n<p>As far as books go, he recommends reading Gregory Zuckerman\u2019s The Man Who Solved the Market, which recounts the birth and evolution of Renaissance Technologies, a quantitative investment firm founded by mathematician Jim Simons whose fund, Medallion, was extremely successful for more than 30 years.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s interesting how there is always a lot we don\u2019t see, but there are always breakthroughs going on behind the scenes,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n                    <\/div>\n    <\/section>\n<\/div>\n\n<div  class=\"bbg-row-container\">\n    <section class=\"bbg-row  text--black row-padding--top-none row-padding--bottom-none bbg-row--full-bg-bleed\" data-anchor='row-69ff20c507c7c'>\n        \n        \n        <div\n            class=\"bbg-row--content\"\n                    >\n            \n            <p><div\n    class=\"bbg-column bbg-column--width-2\"\n    style=\"\"\n    >\n    \n<\/div><div\n    class=\"bbg-column bbg-column--width-8\"\n    style=\"\"\n    >\n    <p><div\n\tclass=\"bb-wysiwyg\"\n\t\t>\n\t<p><strong>Constant evolution<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<div\n\tclass=\"bb-wysiwyg\"\n\t\t>\n\t<p>Although his musical tastes lean toward the classics, Domenech keeps up to date and leverages changes in his professional life.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor example, there is an interesting dynamic with diversity and inclusion. It benefits your work, generates more ideas and creates better and fairer opportunities; this helps clients because we are able to create customized products,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n<p>He also believes that today\u2019s labor market is much more professional compared with a few years ago. \u201cOn the one hand, we demand more skills, greater preparation and more ethical behavior from people in the industry; on the other, schools have improved a lot. There are even some that provide financial information tools, such as the Bloomberg [Terminal], so students already know how to use it,\u201d he points out.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s about evolution and professionalization, but it\u2019s also very important to build more bridges between the industry and academia,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSomething very satisfying for me was getting involved with the CFA Society Mexico. I took the exams and got the Charter by transitioning from credit to markets. Later, I was fortunate to see the company grow and the CFA went from being unknown in Mexico to being highly valued by employers and regulators. For example, annually we do the Research Challenge that has been effective in uniting universities and employers, and this has generated a virtuous circle, with more students considering the CFA to complement their studies and the industry demanding better prepared professionals.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>His recommendation to new generations: do not lose sight of the fact that banking is a service to society. \u201cNew opportunities in coming years will require more preparation and specialization than what my generation required,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n<p>Domenech, who for 25 years has interspersed numbers with musical notes, knows very well how finance has evolved, as well as the challenges yet to come \u2014 even though, when it comes to rock music, he prefers the classics.<\/p>\n<p
