Dr Rajeev K Upadhyay โ Co-Founder
I believe the most dangerous thing an economist can do is mistake noise for signal. In 10+ years of writing about India's economy โ through demonetisation, COVID shocks, RBI rate cycles, the rise of UPI, Trump's tariffs, and India's quiet energy revolution โ I've tried to be the voice that cuts through the noise and asks the harder question: not what happened, but why, and what it means for you. What I do: I teach Finance at Shaheed Bhagat Singh College, Delhi University. I hold a PhD in Finance from Delhi University. I've published 12+ research papers on corporate default prediction, globalization, financial markets, and India's macroeconomic trajectory. I also write a widely-read column and blog at rajeevupadhyay.in โ where data meets geopolitical depth. What I stand for: Data over dogma. Roots in Bharat. Eyes on the world. I've written to make complex economic realities legible and actionable for the ordinary Indian investor, student, policy watcher, and citizen. What I write & speak about: ๐น RBI Monetary Policy & India's Banking Sector ๐น IndiaโUSโChina Trade & Geopolitics ๐น India's Energy Strategy & Oil Market Dynamics ๐น Corporate Default Prediction & Financial Risk ๐น India's Growth Story โ Structural Strengths & Real Vulnerabilities I also write Hindi poetry. Because I believe that numbers alone have never moved a civilization โ only ideas with a soul have. ๐ฉ Open to: Speaking invitations | Media commentary | Collaborative research | Academic partnerships ๐ Read my work: rajeevupadhyay.in | @rajeevkupadhyay on X
