Fred Bucu is an AI Implementation and SEO Specialist at Key Media, where he has written company profiles for InvestmentNews. He also covers Mortgage Professional America, Canadian Mortgage Professional, Mortgage Introducer, Mortgage Professional Australia, and New Zealand Adviser.

He joined Key Media in 2024 as an SEO Writer, covering company profiles and long-form articles across Human Resources Director, Canadian HR Reporter, Benefits and Pensions Monitor, and Insurance Business.

Before Key Media, Fred covered socio-political topics for various clients and publications, often going beyond available sources to research stories firsthand. That habit carries into his work today, along with a Semrush certification in Technical SEO and AI Search Essentials, and attendance at SuperAI Singapore 2026 on a company scholarship.

Fred holds a degree in Development Studies from De La Salle University, where he later studied law for three years. He brings that same discipline to how he researches and writes today. Outside of work, Fred is a home cook and musician who travels to seek out local communities.

How I think about writing for this industry…

“The real story behind any advisory firm or asset manager is how it connects with the clients it serves. That relationship is what I try to capture in every profile, not just the assets under management.”
