Radhika Gupta, MD and CEO of Edelweiss Mutual Fund and a pioneering leader shaping ambition in India’s financial industry, has had a remarkably unconventional journey. Raised across India, Pakistan, Nigeria, Italy and the United States, she grew up as a global citizen before building a career at firms such as Microsoft, McKinsey & Company and AQR Capital Management. In 2009, she co-founded Forefront Capital in Mumbai, which was later acquired by Edelweiss Financial Services, marking her entry into mainstream asset management.

When she took over as CEO in 2017, Edelweiss Mutual Fund managed $739 million in assets. By March 2023, this had increased to over $11.57 billion. She oversaw the integration of JP Morgan Mutual Fund in India and launched Bharat Bond ETF in 2019, India’s first corporate bond ETF, expanding fixed income investment options for retail investors.

Gupta, a graduate of the University of Pennsylvania and The Wharton School, is the author of Limitless and a passionate supporter of financial literacy, mental health, and self-confidence.
