My six-year stint at ING gave me a good ringside view of money management, but I had a burning desire to build a firm that can overcome institutional constraints, such as disincentive for the concentration of positions, shorter review period (which hampers long-term investment results), and cherish the joy of entrepreneurship. I have worked in all three facets of capital markets – first five years of my career as a sell-side Institutional equity research analyst, subsequent six years in fund management with a global firm, ING Investments, managing $450 mn equity Asset Under Management of Mutual fund & Insurance portfolios, and the last eight years as co-founder of Vallum Capital, a boutique investment management firm managing capital on behalf of family offices in the Indian equity markets. I was always excited to find a treasure trove of industry information in those articles, and my inquisitiveness and desire to know more about various industries and companies motivated me to join an Institutional Broking Firm after completion of my Post-graduation. During my post-graduate days, I regularly followed a leading newspaper Business Line, which used to publish detailed industry analyses of various industries in India.
