About

With over 30 years of experience in the global financial markets, I have had the privilege of working across leading hedge funds including SAC Capital and Dymon Asia, with deep investment expertise in the India and Asia region. As a founding member of Geosphere Capital, I helped build a global fund focused on commodities and emerging markets. Currently, I serve as the Founder & CEO of Alpha Alternatives, a multi-asset, alternative investment platform based in Singapore and India, catering to institutional investors, family offices, and HNIs globally. At Alpha, we manage diverse strategies across equities, commodities, structured products, and macro themes, driven by a sharp focus on alpha generation and disciplined risk management. I am a continual student in understanding markets and mastering the craft of investing, endeavouring to minimise errors and not always achieving it! Outside of investing, I find joy in exploring the world, cooking, coaching, cinema, literature, and music. I believe life is best lived with depth, balance, and curiosity , both inside and outside the boardroom.
