The FinanceNow Podcast
Hey guys, I'm your host Anurag Birla. I recently graduated from NUS Business School as a Master of Finance and did my bachelors from NYU with a degree in Economics, Math and Business Studies. I'm incredibly passionate about investing, making money and most importantly learning about companies, industries, trends and news that revolve around the finance world.
In this podcast, I aim to take you along a journey of learning and discovery as I get better at analysing, breaking down and studying companies, hopefully helping some of you along the way too. I summarize and explore topics, news and earnings that I find interesting and I do my best to stay up to date with the biggest stories and biggest technologies that affect us on a grand scale.
Feel free to let me know your general thoughts, comments or even if theres anything particular you think I should research! You can reach me at thefinancenowpodcast@gmail.com or follow me on twitter @tfinancenowp, I'd love to hear from you.
