Most people don’t realise that writing is a technical skill, like architecture or drawing. Financial or investment writing is a specialised skill-set within this. Writing well is critical to convincing both your clients and decision-makers that your investment thesis has merit. Writing helps you build a personal brand as a thought leader in your sector. Sometimes writing can also help you sharpen your thesis or find flaws in it.
