Neel Banerjee

Analyst, NatWest UK
  • Mumbai, India

Hi, I'm Neel Banerjee, a dynamic and results-driven finance professional with a rich academic background and diverse industry experience. My journey in the world of finance has been shaped by a relentless pursuit of knowledge, an unyielding commitment to excellence, and a passion for making a meaningful impact.

I recently completed my Master of Science (MSc) in Finance and Management at Cranfield University, building upon a solid foundation laid during my Bachelor of Science (BSc) in Business and Management from the prestigious University of Exeter. These academic milestones underscore my dedication to continuous learning and staying at the forefront of financial practices.

In my professional voyage, I've navigated through roles that demanded strategic thinking, meticulous analysis, and effective communication. As a Strategy Analyst at House of Hiranandani, a multinational real estate developer based in Mumbai, India, I spearheaded the modernisation of the Management Information System (MIS) Dashboard. This transformative initiative not only streamlined reporting processes but also resulted in a remarkable 30% reduction in reporting time, a testament to my commitment to operational efficiency and process optimisation.

Beyond the realms of technology, my role extended to regulatory compliance. Serving as a pivotal liaison between the organisation and the Real Estate Regulatory Authority of India, I ensured 100% compliance, providing timely updates on ongoing project statuses. This multifaceted experience honed my skills in stakeholder management, regulatory affairs, and project oversight.

Venturing into the intricate world of equity research, I joined ICICI Securities, a prominent investment bank and wealth management firm in Mumbai, India, as a Junior Equity Research Analyst. Here, my analytical prowess took center stage as I led the evaluation of historical values for key global indices, including NASDAQ, FTSE, and SENSEX. This in-depth analysis informed the creation of a forward-looking back-testing model for future trading strategies, a crucial element in developing impactful investment prospectuses.

During a challenging economic downturn, I played a pivotal role in the analysis and restructuring of model portfolios. My recommendations for individual security allowance changes and the implementation of reallocation strategies contributed to a noteworthy 7% increase in client trade volume and a 10-12% enhancement in portfolio performance. This experience was not just about numbers; it was about resilience, adaptability, and a keen understanding of market dynamics.

Complementing my professional journey, I've embarked on the Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) program, currently navigating Level 2. This pursuit reflects my commitment to the highest standards of professional ethics and a desire to contribute meaningfully to the finance industry.

Outside the world of finance, I am a state-level swimmer and a passionate football player and fan. These pursuits not only keep me physically active but also instill in me the values of teamwork, leadership, and discipline.

In every step of my journey, I've sought not just to meet expectations but to exceed them, turning challenges into opportunities for growth and innovation. As I look forward to new horizons and challenges, I remain open to connecting with like-minded professionals, fostering collaborations, and exploring opportunities where I can bring my unique blend of skills, insights, and passion for finance to make a lasting impact.
