Bio
Tunin Roy
Richard is undoubtedly one of the most driven and talented young executives I have ever met. He has an incredible capability to build networks, spot opportunities and drive deals. It has been my pleasure to work with Richard at both ABSA and Invetsec and I would hope that we can work together in future. Richard is very ambitious and has achieved an incredible amount in a relatively short space of time. I would not hesitate to recommend him as a potential employee, a business partner or a consultant.
