Speaking on this occasion, Anuj Kapoor, Founder, and Partner – Investment Banking at Upwisery, explained, "Upwisery implies achievement through wise guidance. We have thoughtfully chosen to combine our varied expertise and offerings under the single brand 'UPWISERY' to deliver better results to our clients while being relevant and agile in an ever-changing ecosystem. Over the last eight-plus years, we have evolved into a holistic service provider with a founder-first mindset rather than just having a transactional association with our clients.

The firm was started in 2014 by a team of seasoned professionals, with 50+ years of combined work experience in leading global investment banks and BIG 4 advisory firms.

Having worked at top global banking and wealth management institutions, the team at Upwisery brings in deep domain expertise across all the asset classes & the spectrum of family office services including trust formation, succession planning, family constitution, and corporate treasury management. The firm also plans to venture into the wealth tech space with disruptive technology and AI-driven wealth management platform catering to the aspirations of the fast-growing HNIs in India.

Prashant Joshi, Co-founder, and Partner – Family Office Advisory said, "With enabling and stable policy framework, high consumption has driven GDP growth and the tightening of the regulatory framework, the quality of mid-market companies and the number of UHNIs in India have grown exponentially, and we expect this number to increase multifold. Despite the global slowdown concerns, we at Upwisery are bullish on the SME sector in India, and our 40+ best-in-class professionals are well-poised to harness this growth for our clientele. As our value proposition indicates, we will continue to help our clients NAVIGATE uncertainties through our valuable insights, ACCELERATE their growth with our expert advice and ELEVATE them to greater heights with our bespoke solutions."
