Wealth management platform Dezerv has raised Rs 265 crore in a funding round led by Premji Invest.
The round also saw participation from existing investors Elevation Capital, Matrix Partners India (aka Z47), and Accel.
Dezerv said it plans to invest the fresh capital into “crafting new investment strategies, boosting its technology platform to deliver superior client experience, and hiring investment specialists for its next growth phase.”
“Building trust and delivering top-tier service requires significant capital for client asset security, regulatory compliance, and good governance. We are grateful for the substantial support from Premji Invest and our existing partners. Premji Invest’s nuanced understanding of investment management aligns perfectly with our goals, and our partners’ continued reinvestment endorses our commitment to excellence,” said Sandeep Jethwani, Co-founder, Dezerv.
Founded by Sahil Contractor, Sandeep Jethwani, and Vaibhav Porwal, each with over two decades of experience in wealth management, Dezerv is a wealthtech platform that manages over Rs 7,000 crore in client assets. These assets are strategically allocated across proprietary equities, fixed income, and alternative investment strategies.
