## What I'm looking for

```text
I'm looking to deepen my work in investment research and financial analysis, evaluating companies, building valuation models, developing investment theses, and translating insights into actionable portfolio recommendations.
```

## About

```text
At Cashvisory, I evaluate companies across banking, energy, and industrials, turning business, market, and financial research into investment views and recommendations.

I've analyzed 50+ companies using DCF, EV/EBITDA, P/E, and SOTP methodologies, and co-developed a 12–13 stock proprietary equity basket that is reviewed and rebalanced quarterly. I also assess equity, debt, and hybrid instruments to understand capital structures, leverage, and investment risk.

Alongside research, I manage 50+ client relationships and translate analysis into recommendations aligned with objectives, risk profiles, and investment horizons. Previously at Vedika Credit Capital, I assessed 30+ corporate borrowers and built credit models that reduced review turnaround by approximately 20%.
