About Petru Munteanu

Petru's lifelong passion for investing began to materialize when he started investing in stocks at the age of 18 in 2018. Since then, he has achieved impressive results by employing a contrarian approach, targeting unloved and undervalued assets while maintaining a disciplined, long-term perspective. He holds a bachelor's degree in Finance and Banking and a master's degree in Financial Management and Investment, providing him with a comprehensive academic foundation in finance and investment principles. He has earned certifications as a Capital Markets and Securities Analyst and a Financial Modeling & Valuation Analyst from the Corporate Finance Institute, attesting to his specialized skills in evaluating complex financial instruments, conducting valuations, and building financial models. Furthermore, he successfully passed CFA Level 1 in May 2023 and CFA Level 2 in September 2024 and is currently preparing for the CFA Level 3 exam, scheduled for August 2025, to further develop his expertise in investment analysis, portfolio management, and financial markets. This strong academic and professional foundation is complemented by his practical experience in the markets. As a generalist investor, he analyzes opportunities across various industries, with a preference for stable cash flow sectors such as consumer defensive, utilities, and real estate. His investment philosophy is centered around value investing principles, seeking out equities trading below their intrinsic value and holding them for long-term appreciation and dividends.
