Research Analyst

Karima Verjee

I joined Sovereign in 2024 after spending more than six years at Esparity Solar, a solar renewable energy company, where I joined at inception and initially provided executive support to the CEO. It was my job to research, define and implement ESG initiatives and strategies for the organisation in my role as Sustainability Officer.

Prior to this, I spent eight years providing bilingual executive support as well as organising events in the investment banking and research divisions of Morgan Stanley and Citigroup. I then went on to work in much smaller start-up venture capital companies.

The sheer dynamism and success of Sovereign motivated me to join the firm in order to embark on my researcher role.

I graduated from Bristol University with a joint honours’ degree in French and Philosophy. I have also lived abroad in France and Spain teaching English as a foreign language to both students and business executives.

In my free time I enjoy being part of a book club, the British Spanish society as well as attending live music concerts and the local gym.
