I’m Narek, and I’ve been in the investment world for over six years. I started out as an equity analyst at European banks, digging into reports and learning how to spot value in the markets. I’ve worked across sectors — from telecom to industry — and found that behind every financial statement is a real story. I studied in Belgium — did my bachelor’s in Antwerp, master’s at KU Leuven, and later completed an MBA in Finance at Vlerick. That journey gave me both theory and hands-on skills. Now I’m building my own investment project focused on the CIS region. I’m passionate about applying Western analytical tools to uncover hidden value in emerging markets.
