Bio
Kanza Afzal, CFA
In the brief time I worked with Umer, I found him to be a creative individual. He is thorough in his work, can handle and work with large sets of information, understands his strengths and development areas, and takes feedback well. He is a reliable individual, who could be trusted with confidential tasks. I appreciate the clarity with which he sets long term goals for himself and I wish him the best for his future assignments.
Abbas Jafri
Umer reported directly and worked on major transactions right from the get-go. His work showed strong acumen, high cognitive ability capable of combining transdisciplinary skills that resulted in productive, focused and quality work. In addition to technical strength, he has solved complexed transactions with creative solutions independently and has shown higher than average levels of EQ by being a proactive team player with a solid sense of integrity while working with the team.
