BITS Pilani - Knowledge is Power Supreme

BITS Pilani - Knowledge is Power Supreme

Risk is a fact of life and financial services organizations have always grappled with credit and market related risk as an integral part of doing business. Citi is today’s pre-eminent global financial services company, with some 200 million customer accounts in more than 100 countries. Citibank India offers a whole spectrum of financial services covering credit cards, Banking Accounts, Wealth Management, Loans, Insurance, Investments, NRI Services, in short everything about money.

The Chief Risk Officer (CRO) of such an organization for a country like India requires the ability to take a holistic view of the risks that might affect operations anywhere in the company. Citi India has ended the CRO search by naming a seasoned professional both in Risk and Finance who has rich experience as Asia Pacific Chief Financial Officer as well as Chief Operating Officer for the Global Consumer Group of Citi apart from over seventeen years experience in various capacities such as Regional Risk Director with Bank of America.

He is none other than Proud to be a BITSian Rahul Gupta who studied at Birla Institute of Technology and Science (BITS) Pilani Rajasthan India during 1967 to 1972 and got his B.E. (Hons) Electrical Engineering degree. In a brief chat with BITSAA (BITS Alumni Assocaition) on 07 Sep 2007, Rahul said that he still cherishes the memories of his stay at Pilani and thanked his Alma Mater BITS Pilani with motto Knowledge is Power Supreme for the interdisciplinary education which is strong in fundamentals and rich in analytical tools for making him what he is today.

He knows that Risk varies inversely with Knowledge and so Warren Buffet Quote “Risk comes from not knowing what you are doing” does not apply. In the coming times, Rahul Gupta is indeed bound to climb many more peaks.
