About

Mayank Saraswat is a skilled Quant Developer with 6.86 years of relevant experience in the financial industry. Currently, he is working as a Senior Associate at MSCI Inc. where he is responsible for developing and implementing financial models, analyzing market data, and providing insights to clients. He has also cleared the FRM and CFA Level 1 certifications, demonstrating his expertise in risk management and financial analysis. Before joining MSCI Inc., Mayank worked as a Summer Intern at Tata Steel, where he identified and analyzed trends in coal pulverization throughput by changing pressure, temperature, and flow rate of the primary air. He quantitatively established the correlation between mill differential pressure and coal feed rate and proposed an adjustable mill pendant and a modified classifier vane assembly. By simulating the model, he demonstrated the increased flow rate through the mill while keeping the coal fineness the same, resulting in a 20% increase in the efficiency of the grinding process. He also determined the mode of pneumatic conveying and investigated the plant's process flow on the field, identifying pressure drop and coal leakage locations hindering the efficiency of the overall process. He coordinated with foremen to resolve recurring coal leakage, which increased the average coal injection rate from 150kg/thm to 180kg/thm, reducing fuel cost by about 35%. Mayank also worked as a Winter Intern at Creative Concepts, where he designed and implemented a freestanding garage for cars. He conceptualized the design so that it requires minimum human efforts and is aesthetically sound. He also organized and managed the press conference arrangements for the demonstration of the car cover design. Mayank holds a Bachelor's Degree in Mechanical Engineering from the Indian Institute of Technology, Bombay, and completed his High School education at Sir Padampat Singhania School. He is a motivated and detail-oriented professional with a passion for developing innovative solutions to complex problems.
