Pratik Thakur

I am an operations, banking, and investment professional with over five years of experience across trade finance, business operations, and capital markets. I combine structured banking expertise with independent investment strategies to drive measurable results.

In my most recent role I managed daily operations for a retail and services family business, leading a team of 12+ staff and coordinating with 25+ vendors to cut procurement costs and improve turnaround times. I implemented digital payment and reconciliation systems that reduced manual errors and enhanced billing and inventory processes.

Alongside operations work, I have self-managed an investment portfolio since 2018, consistently achieving returns above market averages through disciplined equity, mutual fund, and derivatives research. My background at ICICI Bank in trade finance strengthened my regulatory compliance, documentation, and client-relationship skills while reducing issue resolution time.

I hold an MBA in Marketing & International Business and certifications in Advanced Excel, Power BI, and digital analytics. I am results-oriented, process-focused, and seek roles where I can blend operational leadership with financial and analytical decision-making.
