“Virendra has demonstrated exemplary leadership in his previous positions. He brings with him great expertise and experience in handling affluent client portfolios. I am sure he will inspire the private wealth team to realise the potential of being leaders and most preferred wealth managers,” said Motilal Oswal, Managing Director, Motilal Oswal Financial Services. 

At a time when the financial sector is facing the challenge of adapting to a fast pace of technological transformation, such an appointment at Motilal Oswal Private Wealth Management team would make Virendra Somwanshi in-charge of propelling the team towards being at the forefront of technological change.
