After experiencing financial turmoil in his family during the dot-com bubble, Nicholas Crown dedicated his career to managing risk as an institutional fixed income trader. He founded the first Fixed Income Arbitrage desk at UBS in New York and became the youngest Director at the bank by 2014. Previously, Nicholas was a VP at Barclays Capital in Futures trading specializing in bond basis arbitrage. He began his career as a crude oil and natural gas clerk at the New York Mercantile Exchange.
Through his experience, Nicholas realized that retail brokerage products and retirement solutions failed to adequately hedge the risks many investors face. By pre-selecting and carefully structuring annuities, from the neighboring insurance industry, he discovered the easiest and most reliable way to safeguard retirement assets. With the mission of delivering this solution to successful retirees, he founded Revise in 2023.
As Managing Strategist, Nicholas frequently engages directly with clients. He holds a degree in Applied Economics from Cornell University, cum laude, and resides in Chicago.
