Background and Motivation

Vishal has been on Wall Street since 2002, having worked at some of the most prestigious institutions including CSFB, Lazard Frères and Merrill Lynch.  During this time, he held leadership roles across a number of different verticals including investment banking, proprietary trading, asset management and sales.  He has a wide range of experience across industries including technology, Media, Telecom, Gaming, Leisure and Transportation sectors.  During his investment career, Vishal has studied closely the nuances of the investment philosophies and trading styles of some of the world’s most eminent asset managers. That’s a huge asset to The Buylyst. 

In addition to research, Vishal has extensive experience in client-facing roles. He has been responsible for creating a number of portfolios for high net worth individuals, families and institutions using traditional and alternative investment products.  This experience has put Vishal in a unique position to help clients see the light and invest intelligently.

Between Vishal’s experience and mine, we’ve covered a wide spectrum in the field of investing – from sectors to asset classes to investing styles – a powerful combination that’s hard to find anywhere else.

As far as formal education is concerned, Vishal graduated with high distinction from the Stephen M. Ross School of Business at the University of Michigan with concentrations in Accounting and Finance. He has also held various licenses from the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority to sell and recommend securities.

In his spare time, Vishal is the leading armchair NFL Head Coach in his neighborhood. Bill Belichik, watch out. :-)
