A Letter From Our Founder

On Stewardship & Responsibility

Family wealth often gets eroded by the time you come to the 3rd generation.
At A58 Knowledge Services, We Help Wealthy Families Stay Wealthy.

Hi,

Thank you for stopping by. I am Zaharah Sheriff, Founder of A58 Knowledge Services Private Limited. We are a SEBI-registered Investment Advisor.

Our Two Offerings

Stewards-MGW — For Stewards of Multi-Generational Wealth

We exist to help individuals, families and institutions protect, grow and pass on the capital they have worked a lifetime to build. Our primary focus at Stewards-MGW is risk management for wealth preservation.

In addition to investment advice, we empower family members with investment education and candid coaching conversations.

The intent is to build risk-awareness, resilience and financial courage to make high-stakes investment decisions when the opportunities come along, while preventing permanent loss of capital as far as possible.

We add one or two new client family mandates per year. We look for minimum investible assets of INR 15 crores to start a professional relationship.

We are delighted to share that most of our clients are families where women are the primary investment decision-makers in the family.

49HR — Timebound High-Risk Investment Strategies

Most appropriate for Affluent Individuals, Family Offices and Institutions. You could lose up to 80%+ of your initial capital if the investment hypothesis and/or its execution fails.

The primary investment decision-maker should ideally have a minimum of 10 years experience investing their personal or family financial assets in capital markets.

We will work with a maximum of 49 clients for this High-Risk Investment Mandate — hence the name 49HR.

Current Status

We are seeking clients for 49HR till the end of October 2026. If the investment opportunity persists beyond that, we will continue adding clients till we have 49 investment mandates.

We will reopen for new Stewards-MGW clients in calendar year 2027.

Communication

If you are interested in either offering, please email me at legal@a58.in

Please do include some information about yourself in the email to help me respond appropriately.

Thank you for choosing to spend your time here with us. Best wishes to you and your family for a positive investment journey.

With gratitude and conviction,
