Commenting on the performance Ashish Kehair, MD & CEO of Nuvama Group said, “The economic growth momentum for India has been strong in 2023 and our integrated platform captured many of the growing opportunities. In Q3 all our segments performed exceptionally well. We recorded 38% YoY increase in revenues and 66% YoY increase in Operating PAT, an endorsement of our strategy and a testament to our unique integrated wealth management platform built over years.
Our businesses benefited from strong execution of strategic priorities in Q3. In wealth management, our platform continues to attract talent and we have further invested in human capital for growth. Our relationship manager count now stands at ~1100. We deepened our presence in existing locations and have also expanded to new cities. We upgraded our technology platforms for our relationship managers and external wealth managers in our Nuvama Wealth business to improve sales and service efficiency. These initiatives have helped keep our revenues streams diversified and of high quality. In the coming few quarters, we plan to launch our offshore wealth proposition starting with Dubai and Singapore. In Asset Management, we have been focused on completing our product suite and expanding distribution. We announced launch of our new commercial real estate fund of ₹ 3,000 Cr, a 50:50 JV with Cushman and Wakefield. In Capital Markets, we continued to retain our dominant position in respective segments, leveraging the market buoyancy. Overall we will remain steadfast in our strategic vision and are excited to continue ‘doing it right’ for our customers, employees, and stakeholders.
Heading into 2024, we believe the growth momentum will continue as India will reap benefits of the reforms undertaken and its steady focus on business stability, job creation, industrialization, and an expanding digital economy. We expect the rate of wealth creation will continue to outpace economic growth rate, driven by financialization and increasing penetration of organised wealth management. Our fundamentals remain robust, and our business is well positioned to continue to benefit from these tailwinds.”
