The region is home to half the world\u2019s poor, according to World Bank data. Add slowing economic growth, religious conflict, terrorism and unstable governments to the mix, and the consequences could spill over across the globe.<\/p>\n<p><strong>With regard to your work covering the government bond, currency and derivatives markets, how do you go about discovering sources and developing stories?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>What has worked extremely well for me is that I read whatever I come across. Nuggets of information gleaned from various sources have a wonderful way of synthesizing in the brain and forming story ideas. The rest is just about using resources at my disposal \u2014 the Bloomberg terminal, business websites, industry bodies \u2014 to identify what\u2019s at stake and for whom.<\/p>\n<p><strong>As an editor, how do you shape Bloomberg\u2019s coverage of the region? How has your experience as a reporter in the region contributed to your ability to develop content?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>An editor\u2019s job is to ensure that Bloomberg\u2019s clients are aware of issues as they develop, which eventually leads to an understanding that equips them to make business decisions. Working as a reporter has allowed me an insight into the nuances that differentiate India from the rest of the world, so I am better able to explain to my readers the potential impact of an
