- Own Asset-Liability Management (ALM), liquidity risk, and interest rate risk frameworks
- Lead fundraising and capital market activities in line with growth targets
- Manage cost of funds and optimize the funding mix as the AUM scales
Strategic finance & investor relations

- Drive financial planning, budgeting, and AUM growth projections
- Support portfolio company M&A or acquisition diligence as the platform expands
- Build the financial systems and technology infrastructure fit for scale
Regulatory & governance
- Interface with RBI for all regulatory reporting, audits, and compliance matters
- Implement board governance frameworks aligned with PE fund expectations
