Welcome.
I work as a partner and the head of global macro research at Breakout Capital (https://breakout-capital.com/). This is a new fund we started in 2022 with Ruchir Sharma (ex MSIM) as the senior partner and Vikram Pandit (ex Citi CEO) as the head of our board.
Prior to Breakout Capital, I worked in the Global Markets Group at the International Monetary Fund. As part of fund's market surveillance team - I helped develop the IMF’s framework for monitoring global financial stability.
Having done both bottom-up fundamental and top-down macro research, I am well-versed with the global macro-financial inter-linkages and identifying the financial stability risks in the global markets. I specialize in global macro research with a key focus on the Emerging Markets (macro, markets and capital flows); as well as quantitative modelling across global asset classes, spillovers and fundamental research on the global large-caps.
In terms of education, I completed my MBA in Finance and Economics from the Indian Institute of Management, Bangalore (2012), and my BTech in Computer Science from the Indian Institute of Technology, Delhi (2009). I have cleared all levels of CFA, CAIA and FRM and have trained extensively at the IMF in economics and quantitative finance.
