Bio

I have worked with John for more than 7 years and am well aware of his capabilities. He has complete knowledge of Equities/Options Trading and Order Management Process. He has successfully managed and developed applications on fault tolerant Stratus VOS systems that are directly used by the firms 18,000 FA’s for trading equities and options. He never says no to any request for help, small or big. He is very thorough and professional in his work. I highly recommend John for any Senior Management position.

I had the good fortune to have worked with John Beggiato for nearly 20 years at Merrill Lynch, during which time he was my manager for about 18. John is, first of all, a pleasure to work with. He's a very decent human being, with all the attributes that are usually associated: kind, empathetic, generous, compassionate. As an IT manager, he's first rate. But what sets him apart from the crowd is his combination of in-depth knowledge of the securities industry and abundant creativity. He sees opportunity where others see a stone wall. And he has the ability to formulate a clear path to the goal so that his ideas are never just pie-in-the-sky. John's ability to understand the organization, its roles, relationships, and especially its people, gives him a big advantage when it comes to making sure that the best plan gets implemented in the best possible way. John was an invaluable asset to Merrill Lynch, where he was widely respected. I'm sure he will likewise become a treasure to whatever organization he joins.
