Episode #263 features Gautam Chari, Managing Director and Head of
Capital Commitments (Asia Pacific) at Bank of America.
Growing up in Mumbai, Gautam thought his path was already
written. Like many students of his generation, he became a civil
engineer, started work on construction sites and expected to
spend his career building physical infrastructure. Instead, a
series of bold decisions took him to Australia, into investment
banking, and eventually to one of the world's largest financial
institutions.
In this rare and deeply personal conversation, Gautam reflects on
the teachers who changed the trajectory of his life, the culture
shock of moving from Mumbai to Adelaide, breaking into investment
banking without a finance background, living through 9/11 in New
York, and the lessons from building a global career across
Sydney, London, New York and Hong Kong.
Vidit and Gautam explore why the best careers are rarely linear,
the difference between confidence and conviction, how great
leaders develop judgment, why listening is an underrated
superpower, the AI investment cycle, and why the Australia-India
relationship will be one of the defining economic stories of the
coming decades.
This is Gautam's first-ever podcast interview. Please enjoy
exploring your curiosity.
