ABOUT GREG

THE LIFE OF GREG SECKER

Master trader, entrepreneur, maverick, philanthropist, magician and international speaker are just a few of the terms used to describe Greg Secker. A multi-millionaire by his twenties, Greg has gone on to create and run one of England's most successful companies and blazed a path for the everyday-man in the street to walk towards financial freedom. Greg is proud to own Europe's top trader coaching company but his passion lies in not only sharing the knowledge but empowering people to take action.

Greg's History
Greg's career began in Thomas Cook Financial services. He then moved over to the foreign exchange business to run a brand new business entitled the Virtual Trading Desk™. VTD was the first online real-time Forex trading platform, allowing customers to receive real-time quotes for huge foreign exchange transactions. His career quickly soared and at the age of 25, Greg was a Vice President at Mellon Financial Corporation, then a major Fortune 500 investment bank in the United States (not bad going for a man in his early twenties.) Here he was lucky enough to be working around some of the very best traders in the world – with exclusive access working with high-powered Forex traders every single day.

Using the very same trading strategies discovered on his travels around international trading floors, Greg's personal trading account grew to the extent where it allowed him to make a choice. Leave or Stay? Already a now wealthy man, Secker decided to retire as vice-president of firm Mellon Financial Corporation at the age of just 27 to set up a trading floor from his home. In just 3 short months from officially retiring, Knowledge to Action was born.

In the past 8 years, more than 90,000 people have attended Knowledge to Action's various trading seminars and workshops, where they learn how to produce a second or replacement income trading the stock and currency markets.

With offices in the London and Sydney and partners in Singapore and America, Knowledge to Action employs 150 people worldwide. The companies' meteoric success has been recently highlighted in the 2009 National Business Awards as a finalist for growth and innovation.

They went on to pick up a prized finalist position in the 2010 London Excellence Awards, and most recently claimed 49th place in the 2010 Sunday Times Fast Track 100 Awards- a Sunday Times initiative co-sponsored by Virgin that recognizes UK's Fastest growing companies.

Greg has always loved speed and as a young boy he was an exceptional sprinter and a daredevil rally car driver, a passion that still remains firmly a part of his boyish character. A sneak peak into his garage complete with Lamborghini's Murcielago SV and an Aston Martin DBS will confirm this.

International Speaker
Greg is regularly called into the media for his expert opinion on market direction. He has spoken on most major market channels including CNBC and Bloomberg. Now an internationally recognized speaker, Greg is regularly invited to speak alongside renowned personalities such as Robert Kiyosaki, T Harv Eker, Anthony Robbins and many others. In 2009 Greg shared the stage with Tony Blair at The National Achievers Congress in Asia and in 2010 Greg spoke along side a dozen ‘Success All-Stars' including Anthony Robbins and Richard Branson at Ultimate Success Summit in Sydney, personally receiving a standing ovation for his powerful performance.

Giving Back
Having had such abundant success so early on in his life, Greg had long been looking for ways to give back. He has in the past supported various charity initiatives including the royal princes' chosen causes, Tusk and the Child Bereavement Trust - having Prince William play on the Knowledge to Action Polo Team at Lord Andrew Lloyd Webers home in 2010. In 2011 he set up The Knowledge to Action Foundation, a not-for-profit organization committed to positively improving the quality of life for children around the world. Focusing on education, life skills and youth leadership initiatives the foundation strives to equip young people with the essential building blocks of life. Knowledge to Action Foundation is changing lives through its various programs: The Christmas Basket Brigade, Youth Mentoring Program, Early Childhood Development Program (South Africa) and the Flying Trader Project. All the programs aim to better the lives of children and the less fortunate.
