Singapore, 5 September 2019

Lucror Analytics is pleased to announce the appointment of Soummo Mukherjee as a Senior Credit Analyst in its LatAm research team. Soummo will focus on Brazilian credits, and will report directly to Felix Fischer, Head of Research.
 
Soummo is an industry veteran, with 19 years of experience as a credit analyst, having worked in investment banks as a desk analyst and sell-side credit research analyst, as well as 14 years as a rating analyst. Previously, Soummo was based out of New York and spent five months at Citibank and two years at Mizuho Securities as a Latin American desk analyst. Prior to Mizuho, he was at Itau BBA in Santiago, Chile, for two years. From 2000 to 2014, he worked at Moody’s, covering corporates in different regions of the world and across industries, which provided him with a broad knowledge of most corporate industries.
 
“Soummo has a wealth of experience in the LatAm fixed income space, and will support the ongoing expansion of Lucror’s coverage universe, in particular with respect to Brazilian credits. His insights into the local high yield space are invaluable for investors abroad, and will add further substantial depth to our LatAm research product, also with respect to alpha-generating trade ideas”, Felix said.
 
“We are extremely pleased to have recruited yet another highly-experienced member for our LatAm research team. The team now comprises four Director-level analysts with an average credit research experience of 20 years, and correspondingly deep knowledge of local markets. This underpins Lucror’s position as the leading independent high yield research provider, and Soummo’s decision to join us is testament to Lucror’s high standing in the fixed income community”, said CEO Madhav Kapadia.
