Background

About Naveenaa Kumar

I am a CPA with over a decade of experience in public accounting, FP & A, business development, and valuations. My career began in audit and advisory, advanced through 6+ years in FP & A and business development at a leading energy company, and a managerial role in deal advisory focused on valuations. Most recently, I gained hospitality-sector FP & A experience as a Senior Financial Analyst at Pursuit Collection. I now serve as a Regulatory Analyst, Derivatives Oversight at the Alberta Securities Commission (ASC). My focus is to support the oversight of derivatives marketplaces, conduct risk and compliance reviews, and contribute to policy development that promotes fair, efficient, and innovative capital markets. Recognized for being detail-oriented and intellectually curious, I thrive in dynamic environments where critical thinking, adaptability, and rigorous analysis drive meaningful outcomes. Having recently completed the requirements for the Chartered Business Valuator (CBV) designation, I bring diverse perspectives to financial decision-making and regulatory oversight. Passionate about market integrity and investor protection, I am committed to strengthening Alberta’s capital markets while growing as a trusted professional at the intersection of finance, risk management, and regulation.
