HDFC Bank, India’s leading private sector bank, was adjudged as ‘India’s Best for HNW’ at the Euromoney Private Banking Awards 2025. The awards were organized by Euromoney magazine.
On its website, Euromoney writes, “HDFC Bank continues to build momentum in India’s high net-worth (HNW) segment via its flagship Imperia programme, a premium service that offers personalised wealth solutions. At the heart of this offering is a model where wealth relationship managers collaborate closely with bank specialists to deliver tailored investment and banking support.”
