If you want to learn Q, one person to know is Nick Psaris, a New York-based developer at Bank of America who describes himself as “passionate about using and teaching kdb+ to transform businesses,” and who just wrote a book titled, “A Functional Introduction to Machine Learning in Q.” You can find Psaris’ Github page here.

Q is its query language, while K is the language behind KDB, which breaks down into K and Data Base plus.

In 2017, eFinancialCareers (Dice’s sister site) noted that KDB+ was the database system used by banks, hedge funds, and high-frequency trading houses looking for fast data extraction and analytics.

For those in the know, the languages you really want to know in finance are K and Q, the languages that go with the KDB database.

In October last year, Arthur Whitney, the Canadian computer scientist who invented the K and Q languages and developed the KDB database, launched Shakti, a new high-speed data platform with a Python interface.

On Sunday, BuzzFeed News published an investigative report showing how some of the world’s most powerful banks were aware of—but failed to stop—suspicious transactions totaling more than $2 trillion.

Banks profited from these transactions, “facilitating the work of terrorists, kleptocrats, and drug kingpins,” BuzzFeed writes, and the US government, though aware, rarely intervened.

The investigation was based on a leak of more than 2,100 documents dubbed the “FinCEN Files” that BuzzFeed shared with the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists.

Banks flag suspicious transactions made in US dollars to the agency, but most are not investigated; meanwhile, just by filing a report, a bank “all but immunizes itself and its executives from criminal prosecution,” BuzzFeed writes.

A trove of those reports, from transactions between 1999 and 2017, make up the FinCEN Files.
