Turin, Piedmont, Italy
I am an Economics and Finance graduate from the University of Turin and an incoming MSc candidate in Quantitative Finance. My academic and professional interests are strongly focused on investment management, with particular emphasis on asset pricing, portfolio construction, and the quantitative analysis of financial markets. My studies increasingly concentrate on the management and optimization of portfolios composed of both standard and structured financial instruments. I apply quantitative methods to the pricing and valuation of financial assets, with a strong reliance on financial econometrics and the analysis of financial time series. While I place significant confidence in data-driven models and empirical estimation, I believe they must be complemented by a broader macro-financial perspective. For this reason, I integrate quantitative analysis with the study of aggregate economic indicators, sovereign and credit spreads, and a detailed operational analysis of financial statements and corporate finance fundamentals. Collaborating with academic researchers has played an important role in shaping my analytical approach. Working alongside experienced scholars has allowed me to refine my methods of evaluation, deepen my understanding of Financial Economics, and develop a more rigorous framework for analyzing markets and financial instruments. From a technical perspective, I have developed a solid foundation in the pricing of equity and fixed-income securities without embedded optionality. At the same time, I am actively expanding my research toward more complex instruments, including bonds with embedded options and derivative products. My goal is to build a career in investment management where I can apply quantitative finance, macro-financial analysis, and valuation theory to portfolio strategy and asset allocation.
