Utkarsh Choudhary, Co-Founder and CEO of Cashvisory, said,” With Cashvisory, young individuals no longer need to miss out on critical compounding opportunities simply because they lack guidance on where to begin or access to the best advice.

Utkarsh Choudhary said the newly raised funds are set to propel Cashvisory's go-to-market strategy, which includes the introduction of tailored investment portfolios and the development of an AI-driven mobile app.
