Jay Vaghasiya

Finance professional with two years of experience in financial planning & analysis and capital markets, currently advancing my expertise through an MSc in Investment Analysis & Risk at Aston Business School. I am a CFA Level 2 candidate, with a combination of management accounting and investment and risk management principles. In my most recent role, I led budgeting, forecasting, and financial planning & analysis processes that informed senior-level strategic decision-making. Prior to this, I gained experience in capital raising for priority-sector lending, developing both technical competence and confidence in lender negotiations. My academic foundation spans financial reporting, valuation, portfolio management, fixed income, derivatives, and quantitative risk modelling, equipping me with the analytical toolkit to contribute across a range of finance functions. I am seeking opportunities in the Financial Services Industry within the UK, where I can apply my qualifications and experience to deliver meaningful results.
