About

Two decades of counsel,
one principal at a time.

Aamir Javed
Founder & Principal
Founder

Built on twenty years inside the institutions our clients rely on.

Aamir Javed founded North Gateway Advisors after two decades at the world's most demanding financial institutions — Standard Chartered, Mashreq, and Barclays — where he advised principals on wealth strategy, corporate structuring, and cross-border execution.

That institutional discipline now operates independently — without the bureaucracy, without the conflicts of interest, and with the kind of attention only an independent practice can offer.
