Abrar Hassan Saadi

I am pursuing a graduate-level program in finance and risk management at the University of Bath, School of Management. After completing my undergraduate business administration program with a finance major, I completed all three levels of the CFA program. During my academic journey and with practical experience at a research firm and a biotech company, I have honed my skills in financial analysis and management. I am hardworking and resilient, and I am committed to providing excellent service to my employer and clients.

As an Investment Analyst at Alpenburg Capital, Cyprus, I conducted in-depth research on high-yield fixed income products and equities, focusing on energy and technology sectors. My responsibilities included conducting risk analysis, performing asset and company valuations, and delivering regular investment research reports. To enhance analytical capabilities, I developed Python programs to create data feeds, web crawlers, and automated models, ensuring comprehensive analysis of comparable peers. This role allowed me to develop strong financial analysis and modeling skills, providing me with a solid foundation in investment research.

During my tenure as an Officer in Corporate Affairs at Active Fine Chemicals Ltd, Bangladesh, I played a pivotal role in project development, particularly in creating policy proposals related to active pharmaceutical agent (API) production. My main responsibilities included building financial models to forecast the impact of business-friendly policies on API and pharmaceutical production. I also actively engaged in relationship building with governmental institutions and pharmaceutical industry stakeholders, fostering valuable connections in the field.

My experiences in investment analysis and corporate affairs have equipped me with a diverse skill set, including financial modeling, risk assessment, and relationship management. These experiences have nurtured my ability to analyze complex financial products and have honed my skills in strategic forecasting and stakeholder engagement.
