SCHO Private Wealth is a team of next-era financial professionals operating within Merrill Lynch's private wealth group. They specialize in challenging the status quo by providing financial advisory services to ultra-high-net-worth individuals, with a focus on impact-oriented wealth management strategies.

SCHO was established in 2021 by Kanwar Singh, who leveraged his 17 years of expertise in the industry to reimagine how money moves through the world. Although Kanwar was clear about the work his team is meant to do in the world, on the surface they were hard to distinguish from other high net worth advisors. As a result, SCHO was not bringing in the kinds of clients they feel most called to serve—-clients who want to create conscious momentum with their money and tip the scale toward a more equitable society.

A two-time Forbes-SHOOK Best-in-State Wealth Advisor, Kanwar knew the disconnect between SCHO’s existing and ideal client base wasn’t coming from a lack of expertise or competence. It was coming from something so simple: an outdated narrative about the work SCHO can do for ultra-high-net-worth clients.
