About
Chris Kagaoan is an analyst at Driehaus Capital Management LLC based in New York, NY. In his current role, he is responsible for conducting research, performing financial analysis, and supporting the portfolio management team with actionable investment insights, leveraging a broad knowledge of analytics, valuation, and capital markets. His focus covers equity markets, with experience particularly concentrated in U.S. and global equities; however, sector and industry specifics are not publicly disclosed in available sources, so direct investment specialties cannot be confirmed from current public records.
Prior to joining Driehaus Capital Management LLC, Kagaoan acquired substantial expertise in the finance industry, building a foundational skill set in analytics and valuation. He has not been documented in senior or portfolio manager roles at other well-known investment firms in recent years, and no public record links him with executive roles cited in unrelated SunAmerica fund filings; thus, those are attributed to a different individual with the same name.
Kagaoan holds a Bachelor's degree in Accounting and Finance from New York University. His expertise lies in financial statement analysis, valuation techniques, and capital allocation. Across his career, he has contributed to investment analysis processes and is recognized for his strong analytical capabilities in evaluating public companies. No notable industry awards or high-profile publications have been attributed to him in available sources.
