Agarwal will join Deutsche as head of global corporate finance in Mumbai and will report directly to Philip Crotty, the group’s regional head.

Deutsche has been pushing to establish its corporate finance business on the ground in India, having previously run the business from offshore. But in September 2003, V Anantharaman, Agarwal’s predecessor, left to help Standard Chartered establish its own corporate advisory business.
