Welcome to Being Invested, the podcast where we explore investing from the inside. I’m not talking about insider information, but the personal stories of the people who make the markets. I’ve always been fascinated by how skilled investors have become who they are, how they’ve ridden the roller coasters and what it means to them. I’ll introduce you to innovators and leaders in all types of assets and markets – from blue chip stocks to venture capital, from timber to crypto, from violins to power plants.
I’ve been an investor and worked in the international capital markets for my whole career. I’ve had a front-row view of the women and men who move money to shape our world, and I’ve always been interested in who they are as human beings, the choices they’ve made, the qualities that make them good at what they do, and how they deal with setbacks.
This is not a podcast about where to invest your money. It’s a podcast for people who want to understand and thrive in the financial services industry – for those of you just thinking about entering it, for anyone a bit stuck in one corner and ready for a change , and for those of you, like me, who are just plain curious about who the people are behind the world’s financial markets. You’ll get to hear how investors have built and are building their careers and their businesses, and learn from them to invest for the outcomes you desire. And how to respond when the price tanks.
The mindset of being invested can enrich and elevate your journey, and I’d love to encourage more people into the sector who may not have considered it before.
Please join me for riveting conversations and new insights into the careers, life hacks and hard-won life lessons of investors across the globe.

Welcome back to Being Invested. I am really excited to bring you Ep 3, with Ella Hoxha. You have ahead an hour of brilliant gems of life observations, and we explore Ella's finely honed, reflective investment process - with relevance beyond financial markets. She has managed global fixed income for over 20 years, alongside cultivating her passion for ideas, literature, wine and art. We chat about the interconnectedness of markets, the professional importance of a close inner circle, the way music improves wine, and must-read great books. Ella grew up in Albania, hitting her teenage years as the country opened up. She witnessed economic and political upheaval first-hand, and saw both the opportunities and the strains it created. This lived experience of economic theories colliding with life choices and realities has helped to shape her understanding of risk, resilience and probabilities. Ella was featured in the 50 Leading Women in Hedge Funds in 2019, speaks five languages, is a CFA charterholder, a Sommelier Level 3 and holds a diploma in art history. Ella is in the Executive MBA programme at Cambridge, and appears frequently on TV and online.
