London Area, United Kingdom
As an Economics undergraduate, I’m curious to learn about the dynamics between economic development, trade, policy transformation and the financial markets, especially from an investments perspective. Hence why I’ve actively tried to be in an investing role, to be able to understand how the economy function and if in any capacity, help engender meaningful impact to the society. I am also passionate about research and policy making targeted to improve the economic welfare of nations. I am currently researching the effectiveness of Malaysia's poverty measurement tools, microfinancing schemes for SMEs, and policies to bridge the income inequality gap.
