The incoming group, led by executive director Jasjeet Singh, brings deep expertise in serving business families and entrepreneurs. This expansion follows a broader strategy of poaching senior personnel from established institutions, including HDFC, Kotak Wealth, and ICICI Securities. Managing director Amit Rathi noted that the firm’s entrepreneurial culture serves as a primary draw for bankers seeking to cultivate personal brands within an institutional framework.

Spark Capital Group, which celebrated its 25th anniversary, now integrates these hires into a wealth division that serves over 6,140 clients. The move arrives as India’s affluent population continues to swell; current industry data indicates the country’s high-net-worth individual count has reached nearly 390,000, holding approximately $1.65 trillion in assets. By securing this veteran talent, the firm positions itself to capture a larger share of a market currently growing at a 3 percent annual rate.
