About this listen
In Part 1 of this three-part interview, host Lotta Moberg, CFA, PhD, speaks with Oswaldo Zapata, PhD, co‑founder of the Quantum Finance Boardroom and contributor to the CFA Institute Research Foundation monograph AI in Asset Management. This episode introduces the fundamentals of quantum computation, outlining how qubits, superposition, and quantum gates differ from classical computing. Zapata explains why quantum systems can process information in exponentially richer ways and discusses the challenges of building reliable qubits in real‑world laboratory environments. The conversation sets the groundwork for understanding how quantum computers may eventually tackle computational problems that classical machines cannot. This episode is ideal for finance professionals seeking a clear, accessible foundation in quantum technologies before diving into applications.
