ICICI Securities remembers Madhabi Puri Buch as an ideas person

Madhabi Puri Buch has a strong understanding of stock markets,' recalls a former colleague

Madhabi Puri Buch’s colleagues at ICICI Securities remember her as an ideas person. “She has a strong understanding of stock markets and investment banking. Also, she was a good thinker when it came to tapping retail (individual) investors or any branding exercise,” recalls a former colleague at the investment bank-cum-broking outfit, which she headed for two years.

Buch, 50, then spent some years abroad, heading private equity entity Greater Pacific Capital and serving as a consultant to the New Development Bank, set up by the BRICS bloc of nations. She has now joined the Securities and Exchange Board of India
