Founder & Lead Analyst, Nepse Signal
Bimal Rai is the founder of Nepse Signal and the analyst behind most of the long-form research on this site. He has spent nearly a decade tracking the Nepal Stock Exchange, first as an active retail investor and then as the engineer building the data pipelines that power Nepse Signal — including the daily floorsheet sync, broker-flow analytics, fundamental snapshots, and the multi-agent AI advisor. His research focuses on broker microstructure, fundamental analysis of Nepali commercial banks, and the practical edge retail investors can extract from publicly-available NEPSE data. He believes the gap between institutional and retail investors in Nepal is largely an information gap — and that closing it makes the market healthier for everyone.
