We are not pointing to race so much as lifestyles in defining our market and these days and times, many different lifestyles are emerging.”
Andrew Jones

Nicholas Johnson
“The idea is to target the hard-core middle class customer. Wealth management is a serious opportunity for us, as Indians become financially more mature.”
