Clyde White grew up in Granby Massachusetts, a small town 90 miles west of Boston. He attended Northfield Mount Hermon School and Tufts University where he earned a degree in economics and played varsity soccer.

Since his teenage years he has been fascinated with markets so he went to Wall Street and joined the equity derivatives department at Paine Webber. He spent many years there and later at Morgan Stanley and participated in the enormous growth of the derivatives markets from the early days of listed options to
the wide range of sophisticated products we trade today.

He volunteers for a group called No Labels whose mission is to foster civility and bi-partisanship in Washington – not an easy task. He and his wife Carter have lived in Darien for over 30 years and they belong to the
Country Club of Darien. They have two sons. One is a programmer living in Austin Texas and the other is a rocket engineer living in Los Angeles California. Clyde enjoys playing golf, skiing, and playing chess.
