How to prepare for a final round interview with MD?

I recently got invited for a final round interview with a managing director. The role is for Markets Summer Analyst and the desk is trading desk. First round was with 3 EDs and it was pretty technical.

I have one experience of interviewing with an MD for EQD sales role and it was not technical, but mainly resume-based. Should I expect the same for the trading role as well? Is there anyone with an experience of interviewing with MD for a trading role -- how will it be like?

Much appreciated for the response!
