Indrabati joined the Capital.com content desk in 2021 with limited prior experience in financial journalism, but was able to hit her stride in no time -- becoming a key member of the market intelligence team and covering asset classes from equities to crypto and commodities.

Indra is a hard worker and an enthusiastic learner, putting in constant effort to acquire more knowledge and improve the quality of her output. In recent months, she consistently produced some of the team’s best-performing content, with her articles ranking well in search and getting picked up by other platforms. Indra is very receptive to constructive feedback and is an extremely friendly colleague, and it’s fantastic to have her on the team. I’m sure she will achieve great success in her career ahead!
