Igor Cornelsen

Igor Cornelsen was born in Curitiba, Brazil on October 4th, 1947. After a grueling admissions protocol, he began studies at the only engineering school in the States of Parana and Santa Catarina, The Federal University of Parana. After having studied engineering and later economics Igor graduated in 1970 and went on to begin his career in investment banking. Quickly proving his worth Igor would become top of his class and by 1976 be promoted to CEO of Multibanco.

Unfortunately just two years later in 1978 Multibanco would be acquired by Bank of America forcing Mr. Cornelsen to pursue other ventures, the first of which was his move to Unibanco which was one of the top investment firms in Brasil. Igor stayed at Unibanco until 1985 before making his next move to Libra Bank PLC, a merchant bank based in London.

Igors move to Libra Bank PLC would open his up to a whole new world of investment opportunities whereas it was the first time his salary would be paid in U.S dollars. After growing in success Mr. Cornelsen would later move on the become a member of the board and a representative in Brasil forStandard Chartered Merchant Bank. After continuing on this path until 1995 Igor Cornelsen would make his biggest decision so far and leave his position to start his own investment firm offering the same services which he has perfected over the years.

Mr. Cornelsen still works hands on in the day to day aspects of his business, one of which is keeping up with international news and keeping up to date studies on multiple economies and the business inside them. Adapting his fund to fluctuate with the moving economies is crucial as well as keeping up to date with political news. Problematic political or economic decisions will be a major deciding factor in his sale of assets.

Igor Cornelsen also has a reputation for providing expert investment insight for the general public, through his article contributions.  For Example:
