I have done my under graduation in Electrical Engineering from IIT (BHU), India. Further, my interest in Finance led me to choose EDHEC Business School (France) for the Master's degree in Finance. I have finished my internship as Financial Analyst in Central Finance team at Schneider Electric, Paris. I am also pursuing CFA.
Being a graduate with dual background (Finance and Engineering) from top universities I would be a suitable fit for the team. My experience with mathematics and computing would facilitate me to understand the tech part of the tasks. The combined knowledge of programming and finance is the key characteristic of my profile which distinguishes me from other candidates.
During my Masters degree in France, I worked on few projects. I did my master thesis on "Financial Analysis and Valuation of Stock price of BBA Aviation" in which methods like DCF, comparable methods and dividend discount model were used. It also included the study of competitors and SWOT analysis of company and industry. I have done a Portfolio Management project where I studied and applied different strategies to compare the results with the benchmark (Market index) and between different strategies. All the strategies included active management of stocks to get better returns. I have done another project on pricing of stocks and options as a part of my curriculum in which I used MS Excel & VBA programming for regression analysis and MATLAB to price the options using Monte Carlo Simulation (Later compared the results with Black Scholes). These projects reflects my understanding and application of finance studies which I carried throughout the course.
