Leo Almazora

Leo Almazora is a senior journalist at InvestmentNews. Having been with IN since February 2024, he covers the full spectrum of wealth management — equities, fixed income, mutual funds, ETFs, alternative investments, and wealth technology — drawing on nearly a decade of reporting experience built through direct conversations with portfolio managers, financial advisors, and industry insiders.

Before joining InvestmentNews, Leo spent years developing deep fluency in the language of financial professionals, giving him an instinct for what matters to advisors and their clients alike.

Outside the newsroom, he's a runner (one marathon down, one more on the horizon), a singer, a dance enthusiast, a cyclist, and an audiobook devotee – sometimes all at once.
