Investment Banking needs diverse voices and fresh perspectives. Yet today, only a small fraction of women graduates from management campuses make their way into IB roles, and representation within firms.    At Avendus, we believe it's important to unlock the power of diversity in the IB talent pool. With this vision in mind, we are excited to launch BankingOnHer — a bold initiative dedicated to creating pathways and offering aspiring women from management campuses a close-up view of the dynamic world of Investment Banking.

  🚀 India’s SaaS sector is witnessing phenomenal growth, and it’s just the beginning! The Indian SaaS market (SaaS companies from India building for the Globe) is expected to grow at a 33% CAGR over the next four years, reaching USD 35 billion and representing ~7% of the global mix. Since 2018, investments in SaaS companies from India have surpassed USD 15 billion, leading to the emergence of 27 unicorns. At Avendus Spark Institutional Equities, we’ve spent considerable time analyzing SaaS firms and have developed an 8-point framework to help investors assess their growth potential and valuation. Revenue growth, profitability (measured by the Rule of 40), sales efficiency, and client retention are key drivers of valuation. Notably, majority of the top 10 global SaaS companies have reflected these metrics in their valuations over time. Looking forward to your thoughts and discussions.

China launched its largest stimulus since the pandemic, while the US Federal Reserve cut its benchmark interest rates by 50 bps.
