Manisha Tank

I’ve always had a keen interest in international affairs, both political and economic – one reason why I interned at the Foreign Office during my University years. There, I became a resident expert in Britain’s defence links with South East Asia.

I studied at Oxford and obtained a degree in Philosophy Politics and Economics. My thesis focused on international economics and politics.

Then studied post-grad broadcast journalism and kicked off my TV career.

I joined the BBC from Reuters Television, where I anchored live world business programmes. I was also posted to New York, reporting US Markets from the Nasdaq market site and floor of the NYSE. That led to a long stint covering European markets from the London Stock Exchange.

Aspirations? To write a book looking at the influence of broadcast media on global market psychology.

My offbeat activities? Cello playing, Odissi Dancing (Classical Indian dance from Orissa State), accompanying my hubbie on international adventure vacations – climbing, trekking and rafting for example are some of our favourites.

Best experience ever? Trekking the Great Wall of China at Simitai – one of its more dangerous charms.
