Greenback Capital Limited said in a press release that its founder and chairman Amardeep Sharma received the Excellence in Banking and Finance award at the Indo-European Business Forum Awards 2026. The event took place at the House of Lords in London on Oct. 14 and recognised Sharma during a gathering of British parliamentarians, policymakers, diplomats, investors and international business leaders. The company noted that the award reflects his two-decade career spanning banking and investment services across India, the United Kingdom and the UAE.
The Rt. Hon. Baroness Verma announced the award with presentation support from Kanishka Narayan, Britain’s minister for artificial intelligence, according to details in the release. Other parliamentary representatives present included Seema Malhotra, Dan Carden, Lord Uday Nagaraju and Lord German, as listed in the official programme. This parliamentary setting added weight to the recognition within Indo-European business networks.
Sharma began his career at ICICI Bank in 2001, where he built expertise in retail banking, corporate finance and investment banking before expanding internationally, the statement reported. He went on to establish Greenback Capital Limited as a regulated investment firm based in Dubai, a city that according to a Firstpost report hosts a significant Indian professional community supporting the UAE’s financial growth. The Indian Embassy in Abu Dhabi places the total number of Indian nationals in the UAE at roughly 4.3 million. The release framed the award as international validation of that professional path from Indian banking origins to leadership in global financial services.
Greenback Capital Limited engages in investment advisory, asset management and collective investment fund management, the company announcement stated. The official IEBF award programme described the firm as overseeing more than $6 billion in combined assets under management and advisory. This scale formed a key element in the organisers’ decision to honour Sharma’s contributions.
The Indo-European Business Forum Awards aim to highlight excellence and advance business collaboration between India, Britain and Europe, according to the context supplied in the release. The Oct. 14 ceremony provided a platform for dialogue among senior figures from these regions on investment and trade opportunities. Sharma’s recognition adds to similar honours conferred in prior forums hosted at the same venue.
Greenback Capital indicated through its statement that the award marks a significant point in Sharma’s career trajectory. The firm operates from Dubai, where the Central Bank of the UAE reported that the banking, finance and insurance sectors employed 23,364 nationals at a 31 percent Emiratisation rate by the end of 2025. The release positioned the honour as encouragement for continued growth in the company’s advisory and management activities.
