Shilpi Chowdhary
Group Chief Executive Officer
Lighthouse Canton and Keenai Global
In 2014, Shilpi Chowdhary left a Managing Director role at Credit Suisse Private Bank to build an independent wealth firm in Singapore, when the multi-family office model was still new to Asia. Today, as Co-Founder and Group CEO of Lighthouse Canton, he leads a USD 7Bn group across Singapore, India, Dubai and the UK. In 2025, he was named Independent Wealth Manager of the Year at the Asian Private Banker Awards for Distinction.
His next build is Keenai Global, a wealthtech platform started in 2019 and launched in Singapore this August. The idea came from clients he kept meeting: investors who want institutional-quality products and opportunities but are priced out of them. Keenai Global answers with a more efficient channel, one digital account with human expertise alongside it. It is tech-led and human-empowered.

About this session
As substantial wealth passes from one generation to another, the priorities of families and their expectations of the institutions serving them are changing.
While first-generation wealth creators have often prioritised control and preservation, their successors may place greater value on time, convenience, technology and different forms of financial advice.
How will the next generation approach investment decisions, risk and governance?
How can families prepare successors to assume responsibility for wealth, and what must private banks, family offices and advisers do to remain relevant as relationships and decision-making authority change hands?
