For any stock investor wanting to maximize risk-adjusted returns, it is necessary to swiftly determine which companies to look into and which ones to pass on. This can take a lot of time and energy though. As an Equity Research Analyst at DNB, I help investors find the Apples among the BlackBerrys, so they can allocate their portfolios to the most promising companies.Holding a MSc Finance degree from LSE, and with an interest in company analysis and investing, I specialize in using quantitative and numerical methods to solve tangible business issues. I am experienced in using tools such as Excel and Python; I recently developed the most profitable trading algorithm in the LSE Optiver Python Coding Challenge.My other competencies include resilience, flexibility, innovation, integrity and communication.If you want to have a chat (or exchange obscure anecdotes from military history), then I would be happy to connect!
