Key areas of focus
A critical part of my work is to continuously improve our offering by identifying gaps in the product shelf and proactively sourcing solutions that meet evolving client needs.
Over the past 12 months, my primary focus has been on navigating the volatility in global markets and identifying high-conviction strategies that capitalize on critical and emerging thematic ideas like artificial intelligence, supply chain independence etc.
A significant portion of my focus was also dedicated to developments in the ESG space and ensuring that our ESG offering continues to be aligned with regulatory developments.
