What Spriha Srivastava's clients say

Here is some of the feedback from audiences and clients who have worked with Spriha.

"Spriha brilliantly chaired a panel on mobile banking at the 2018 Horasis Global Meeting. It is rare to find a moderator who connects with her panellists and the entire audience but Spriha did exactly this. She was able to bring clarity to the critical changes and demands going on in mobile banking."

Chairman,

Horasis

"The more one says about Spriha, the less it is. Covering global markets across regions and asset classes for a 24-hour moderated chat-room requires astute understanding of the financial markets in addition to dedication, some-one who can work under pressure calmly and focus with clarity of thinking. Spriha is a results driven Producer who is ready to deal with difficult situations is indeed an asset to Thomson Reuters."

Tanya R.,

Quantitative Portfolio Manager

"In her time with Infrastructure Investor, Spriha applied herself well to a range of tasks, proved herself a very capable writer and got on extremely well with everyone around her. The role at PEI was of a temporary nature, but she obviously had a lot of potential for the future and left with everyone's best wishes."

Senior Editor,
