Capital is where you start.
Wealth is where we take you.

Our philosophy

Wealth without direction is just capital.

Capital without conviction is just risk.

Risk without counsel is just chance.

We provide the direction. The conviction. The counsel.

Twenty years of independent practice. Forty years of experience behind it.

At a certain point, wealth stops being a number. It becomes a responsibility — to a family, to a future, to something larger than a portfolio. That is the conversation Verdant is built for.

What is this wealth for? Who does it serve? What should it become?

These are not financial questions. They are human ones. We answer them with the discipline of institutional private banking and the independence that only a boutique can offer.

Raman Deep Singh’s work has been published by leading business and financial publications across India and internationally.

I have known Raman since he was a banker with Grindlays. I started using his company’s services when he took the initiative of setting up Verdant, which was over twenty years ago. For all these years, Raman and his team have continued to be a professional outfit - transparent, prompt and sincere in their dealings with me. Raman has been a sounding board for all kinds of advice - sharing his knowledge, clear views and logic, which has helped in taking important decisions, and has seen the portfolio grow. Basis my experience, I unreservedly recommend the services of Verdant.

Anurag Dikshit Treasurer, Nestle India

We have known Raman for over twenty years ever since he was with Deutsche Bank. He has successfully guided us and our family in our investments and has also assisted many of our friends and associates. He is very thorough in his research and I would unhesitatingly recommend the use of Verdant's services.

Manju Vira & Ravi Vira Gupta Retd. IAS

Gagan has been helping us acquire art for a while. But our financial relationship with Verdant commenced only a few years ago with Raman managing surpluses for the family and Company. I have to admit that he has over these years managed our funds with high alacrity and choosing investment products keeping the risk mandate in mind whether it was for our children or business or us. Their office is automated. His team is prompt in service delivery. And I find ease of doing business with them because of the digital footprint that they have built. Raman has tied up with associates who provide alternative products and we have had a very satisfying experience so far. I recommend Verdant for the services that they offer!

Sandeep and Surangana Jain Entrepreneur

We met with Raman when he was leading the Deutsche Bank team in Delhi. We decided to continue using his services when he moved and set up Verdant. We are very impressed with Verdant’s service standards and promptness of delivery. They have serviced all our financial needs and provided administration help promptly. Raman has also helped us with estate management documentations. He is an experienced banker and has knowledge about matters which compliment investments which has helped us in taking some important decisions. We recommend Verdant to others.

Surendra Singh and Hemi Singh Retd. Cabinet Secretary of India, Educationist

Raman is an ex-colleague from Deutsche Bank. Given his experience and good values, I can vouch for his sincerity and ethics which led me to Verdant when he set it up. My family and I have been clients of Raman for many years and am quite satisfied with his service and work. Raman is unique in that he does not advise or promote new launches or flavor of the season. His approach is careful, based on one’s financial objectives, family values and risk taking ability. Raman does not get swayed by market sentiments and keeps the portfolio churn low. My family and I am long term investors and we prefer this conservative approach. I recommend Raman/Verdant's investment related services.

Ravi Singh

My sister introduced me to Raman and I started to seek his advice for my investments from 2007. Over the years, I have found Raman to be knowledgeable, upto speed with the market changes and honest in his approach. He has managed my portfolio to my satisfaction. He patiently explains everything to me even though at times I have to make him repeat it for my understanding. I am told by my accountants that his back office is automated and his team provides prompt service whenever sought. More importantly, Raman plays an important role for me when I wish to seek advice on financial matters because of my trust in his judgment. Infact, many in my family seek his council for investments. Verdant carries my recommendation for anyone requiring assistance in managing their financial affairs.

Eeda Gujral Chopra Home maker and Philanthropist

Verdant" has made managing my investments most beneficial and tailored to my needs. Unlike others, they have not been too sales motivated or tried to offer me an assortment of products I do not need. Indeed, their proactive approach to finding the right investments for me has put me in a stronger position than when I started. I continue to recommend them to my friends and anyone looking to have a valuable experience investing in the future.

Gurvinder Sethi Entrepreneur

We have had a long-standing association with Verdant and have consistently been impressed by their professionalism, transparency, and commitment. Over time, Ramandeep has become a trusted part of our financial decision-making process—someone we involve even in family discussions regarding investments.
He brings strong financial insight and, importantly, provides steady guidance during uncertain and volatile market conditions. His personal approach, including regular home visits and easy accessibility over the phone, reflects his dedication and client-first mindset.
We are pleased to highly recommend his services.
