LONDON, United Kingdom — Manish Chaturvedi, Founder & Managing Director of Indus Strategy Financial Advisors P. Ltd., will represent the Mumbai-based boutique private capital and investment banking firm at the International Trade Council Global Convocation & Leadership Forum, which runs from Thursday 26 to Saturday 28 November 2026 across various venues in London.
Founded in 2011 by Chaturvedi, Indus Strategy Financial Advisors provides institutional-quality corporate finance, strategic transaction structuring, and investment banking services to mid-market businesses, family offices, and corporate promoters. The firm supports domestic and cross-border transactions, including capital raising, restructuring, debt and equity fundraising, mergers and acquisitions advisory, and India entry strategy for international companies. It also participates directly in capital deployment, asset management, wealth strategies, and cross-border partnerships.
Attendance at the forum matters because the firm sits at the intersection of Indian mid-market enterprises and international capital. The three-day programme focuses on trade expansion, market access, supply chain resilience, and export growth, themes that align closely with Indus Strategy’s advisory corridor linking Mumbai with Dubai, the wider GCC, and Southeast Asian markets. Chaturvedi is expected to contribute perspectives on mobilising private capital for cross-border corporate investment and foreign direct investment strategy.
The forum offers a platform to discuss how regulatory frameworks and structured capital can support cross-border mergers, foreign capital allocation into Indian growth enterprises, and outbound Indian corporate expansion. For Chaturvedi, the event is a practical opportunity to compare how different markets are approaching private capital formation, transaction structuring, and risk sharing at a time when mid-market businesses face tighter access to long-term funding.
“The Indian mid-market needs structured, patient capital that can move across borders without being slowed by avoidable complexity. I want to bring the transaction-level experience of our practice into the forum’s discussions on trade corridors, regulatory alignment and private capital mobilisation. London in late November provides a concentrated setting to test how different jurisdictions are solving for the same constraints.”
Chaturvedi, a Chartered Accountant with more than two decades of capital markets experience, founded the firm after working in fixed income, money markets, and corporate debt and equity fundraising. The advisory practice is supported by a senior advisory board that includes professionals with backgrounds from HSBC, JP Morgan, Google, and the Supreme Court of India. The firm maintains an international footprint in Dubai to support capital flows across the UAE, Middle East, and Southeast Asia. This operational base reinforces the company’s participation in trade finance, cross-border corporate investments, and FDI advisory work.
