About

I am an alum of IIT Ropar working as a Fixed Income analyst with HSBC. I have experience in Futures trading, quantitative strategies, and high-frequency equity trading. Having secured a Pre-Placement Offer during an internship in the trading industry, I subsequently delved into proprietary strategies as a Quant Trader in an AIF Cat3 Hedge Fund. Currently, I contribute as a Researcher at HSBC in the Global Markets Research team, specializing in fixed income. My skill set includes Python involving deep learning and machine learning for modeling and analysis, excel VBA, SQL Bloomberg, and options & futures trading. I am dedicated to continuous learning and innovation in the dynamic landscape of financial markets. Let's intertwine our narratives in the symphony of finance, where innovation meets brilliance.
