My name is Willemien Rijsdijk. I have been working as a financial translator under the name Fluent in Finance since 2004. I work for a select, international group of financial institutions, ranging from investment boutiques and asset managers to central banks, directly as well as indirectly (through translation agencies).

My extensive financial expertise and practical experience give me an edge over other financial translators. I spent almost 18 years working on the stock exchange floor and in dealing rooms, including as a trainer of stock exchange floor personnel, as an investment analyst, broker and asset manager. In those days I was chiefly concerned with ‘translating’ figures, nowadays I focus on the words and the style of the texts.
