Zohora has quite a few years of working experience in her home country, Bangladesh, after having her Bachelor’s in Mathematics and MBA in Finance from the University of Dhaka. Though she started in the commercial financing industry, eventually, her interest got driven toward Development Finance. Lately, she has worked for the research organization, Institute for Inclusive Finance and Development and completed the online MicroMasters program in Data, Economics, and Development Policy offered by MIT. Her interest covers a broad area, including the impact of mobile banking and agent banking in an underdeveloped/developing economy, creating an enabling environment for micro, small and medium enterprises, behavioral insights in policy formulation, and so forth. She loves to play with data and look into causal relation between two seemingly correlated variables. Also, she possesses a keen interest in mathematical modeling in Economics. Zohora aspires to pursue a Ph.D. in Development Economics and be a significant part of the policy world of developing countries.
