About Ariel Sebbag

Senior finance and technology leader with 20+ years of experience across investment banking, capital markets, credit and portfolio risk, product leadership, and AI-driven financial platforms.Built my career at two of the largest private banks in Brazil, operating within Director / Managing Director governance, with end-to-end ownership of credit risk, portfolio management, and financial products in a highly regulated tier-1 banking environment. Led initiatives spanning risk frameworks, capital allocation, product development, and regulatory interaction — including the redesign of corporate credit risk methodologies recognized with the Walther Moreira Salles Award for Best Risk Management Project (Itaú BBA, 2016).More recently, Co-Founder, CEO & CTO of EqDeal, where I designed and built production-grade AI decision and scoring systems for venture investing, cap table management, governance, and financial infrastructure. Worked hands-on across data architecture, model design, and deployment — translating complex financial and regulatory requirements into scalable, real-world systems.Specialized in building explainable, auditable, and regulator-ready decision systems, where risk management, transparency, and compliance are treated as core design principles rather than afterthoughts.I operate at the intersection of finance, risk, product, and technology — with a track record of delivering measurable outcomes in high-complexity, regulated environments. Open to senior global opportunities.
