Work experience

Financial Data Analyst at Fixed Income Money Market and derivatives Association of India, Apr 2025 - Jun 2025 · 3 mos, Mumbai, Maharashtra, India, During my internship at FIMMDA, I conducted a comprehensive project titled “A Comparative Study of Yields of AAA & AA+ Rated Corporate Bonds using SLV and Matrix”, where I analyzed yield patterns across different ISINs , evaluated deviations between SLV model yields and matrix-based yields, and interpreted credit risk premiums across tenors. The project emphasized analyzing yield patterns to understand how credit ratings and maturity periods impact pricing in the Indian corporate bond market. Additionally, I assisted in credit rating verification by cross-referencing ISINs of various corporate bonds on the NSDL portal to ensure accuracy and consistency in credit rating data. This enhanced my proficiency in using bond databases and familiarized me with regulatory data practices in the fixed income space. I also got the opportunity to experience FIMMDA’s two-day monthly training on Bond Mathematics and Indian Treasury Markets . There , I learned about bond valuation, yield curve interpretation and interest rate risk management and also gained hands-on experience in applying these concepts using Excel, which further supported and strengthened my main project work.
