Siddharth Shrimal

I have a bachelor of science degree in Economics and Finance with Research from Ashoka University. I grew up in Bangalore, studied near Delhi and work in Mumbai. Currently, I'm with Avendus Capital's investment banking team (Infra and Real Assets).

Economics: I took up econ at university because I wasn't too sure of what I wanted to pursue. Over time, I've really come to revel in its study. I'm particularly drawn to macroeconomics, focusing on growth and structural transformation, and how data-driven analysis informs economic policy and development. I stumbled across economics research through coursework, and loved it. Gave it a shot in my last year at uni; you can view my work in the projects tab.

Investing: Both my parents (and my granddad) have careers around investing and finance. I've picked up from it—and enjoy understanding markets from an investing lens.

Health & Fitness: Played basketball as a kid, and now I'm interested in strength training and exploring different ways to stay active.
