Wealthdoor began as a B2B wealth tech company, building tools for large financial institutions. When Azer Karimov approached the team as a client he saw an opportunity to expand its mission beyond enterprise software. Drawing on his experience, he helped steer Wealthdoor toward making goal-based, personalized investing accessible to everyone. His leadership and belief in financial inclusion led to his appointment as CEO, guiding the company's evolution from a back-end provider to a platform reshaping how people grow and protect their wealth.
Wealthdoor's co-founders, Azer Karimov and Shiksha Anand, come from very different starting lines but are running in the same direction. Azer spent years in private wealth at top U.S. institutions, while Anand is a Berkeley engineering student who saw a financial-literacy gap among her peers.
