Arjun is a founding partner of Hanut Alternate Investments LLP and manages the Hanut Fundamental Quant (HFQ) fund. He started looking at markets in a professional manner in 2007 and has seen multiple moods of the markets in the last 14 years. Over the years he has explored many different styles of investing including being purely fundamental to being a momentum investor.
