About the Author
Hi everyone!
I am Raag Vamdatt. This page would give you a brief about my background and why I started this website.
I am really passionate about personal finance and investing, especially stocks / equities. I have been an avid reader of financial papers and journals since my school days and like to keep myself abreast of the latest in this industry.
Being a firm believer that only equities have the ability to give sustained, inflation-beating returns in the long term, I feel it should be a part of every person's portfolio.
Warren Buffet has been my greatest inspiration. Although his way of investing (through a holding company) may not be practical for small investors, the fundamental principles that he and other value investors use can be understood and applied by small investors too.
As a kid, I started with helping my father in filing his income tax returns. We also used to discuss various investment avenues prevalent then, like bank FDs and Life Insurance.
Then I started handling my father's stock portfolio. I have also been advising family and friends about investment planning for over a decade.
Through my website, I intend to reach out to a wider audience and help them realize their financial dreams. I want my website to serve as a one stop-shop for all your financial planning needs.
My academic and professional qualifications:
I have an MBA in Finance from Narsee Monjee Institute of Management Studies (NMIMS), Mumbai University.
I am an Asst. Manager with Cognizant Technology Solutions (CTS) New York, USA. One of the world's largest banks is our client. I function as a Business Analyst on their Long Short Trading Product (LSTP) in their Securities Services division. Previously, I have also worked as a Business Analyst with their Prime Brokerage business in their Investment Banking division.
Prior to that, I worked with Tata Consultancy Services (TCS), where Clearing Corporation of India Ltd. (CCIL) was the client. I worked as a Business Analyst on their Foreign Exchange trading platform (FxClear), and on Reserve Bank of India's (RBI's) debt auctioning systems.
