Profile

Vikas is a Senior Financial Advisor within Merrill Lynch Wealth Management and a senior partner of The Boccaccio Mohindra Group. He has earned the designation of Chartered Retirement Planning Counselor. One of his areas of focus is creating and implementing custom strategies to help individuals and institutions optimize their retirement plans. Vikas is a qualified Portfolio Manager who, in addition to providing traditional advice and guidance, can help clients pursue their objectives by building and managing his own personalized or defined strategies, which may incorporate individual stocks and bonds, Merrill Lynch Wealth Management model portfolios, and third-party investment strategies. When servicing clients through the firm’s Investment Advisory Program, a Portfolio Manager may manage his strategies on a discretionary basis. Prior to joining Merrill in 2008, he was a Financial Advisor at Morgan Stanley’s Wealth Management Division.

Vikas graduated from the University of Maryland with a Bachelor of Science in Economics. He currently serves as a mentor at Merrill to current undergraduate students and his peers. Vikas is fluent in both Hindi and Punjabi.  In his spare time he enjoys cooking, basketball and running.
I follow the deep-seated Merrill tradition of participating in the communities we serve. This drives my interest in spending time volunteering with organizations in our community.
