πŸ‘‹ Hi, I'm Gaurav Kumar

Fixed Income & Macro Quant

πŸ’‘ I build systematic strategies & research models across global macro markets.


🧠 Core Areas

  • πŸ“ˆ Fixed Income β€” Yield Curve, Bond Risk Premia
  • πŸ’± FX β€” Carry, Dollar Factors
  • βš–οΈ Portfolio Optimization β€” Risk Parity, Multi-Asset Allocation

πŸ”¬ Research Focus

I focus on replicating + stress-testing academic finance research using real-world data:

  • πŸ“Š Yield Curve Modeling (Nelson-Siegel, Diebold-Li)
  • πŸ“‰ Bond Return Predictability (Cochrane-Piazzesi)
  • 🏦 Credit Risk & Spread Decomposition
  • 🌍 Currency Carry & Global FX Factors
  • βš™οΈ Risk-Based Portfolio Construction
