About Chandra Govindaraju
Managing a $2.8B sovereign pension fund mandate, plus AIF and SICAV structures. Fund performance is the primary target, driven by holistic fundamental research. Sector agnostic, We seek out dislocated valuations, identifying undervalued high-quality assets weathering temporary headwinds. Our edge is an active weight of +65% coupled with a concentrated portfolio approach. In my 13 years of work experience, including 11 years in Indian market equity research, I\'ve honed expertise analyzing diverse sectors like financials, auto, telecom, infra, oil & gas, and industrials. My coverage contributions consistently account for 55-70% of the portfolio\'s weight
