We started with the best of intentions to talk about corporate actions but took a couple of turns along the way. Prashant Mohan is the Chief Marketing Officer at portfolio tracker Sharesight. We talked about his investing history, what he's learnt working at a Fintech Startup, why he started investing with an LIC rather than an ETF, and finally getting around to corporate actions - what they are and how they have to be accounted for.

This conversation came about because of this blog post.

Prashant is currently the CMO at Sharesight where he leads a team of talented marketers who are all investment geeks. He joined Sharesight in 2018. Before joining Sharesight, he was responsible for driving customer acquisitions and growth at leading fintech, Prospa. He has held various roles across finance and technology companies including running strategy and sales operations for Google in AUNZ and also at Westpac bank. He holds an MBA from INSEAD business school in France and Singapore and is also a graduate from BITS, Pilani.
