Selven Valleeamah
Private Wealth Manager
Selven looks young but he's made of old-fashioned tradition, old-fashioned respect, old-fashioned ethics, old-fashioned scholar and old-fashioned gentleman.
Heralded as the gateway to Finance in Africa, Mauritius is adorned with breathtaking natural beauty ranging from pristine beaches to lush mountains. The financial industry, akin to the sustainable practices needed to preserve Mauritius's natural splendour, emphasizes responsible finance and ethical investments, reflecting a shared commitment to long-term growth and resilience. Selven was brought up on these beautiful beaches with these timeless ethics and a love for economics buried in his very bones.
Selven's professional journey in financial advising is rooted in a deeply personal understanding of the value of money. Growing up in a modest Mauritian family where his father served as the sole breadwinner, Selven recognized early on the challenges of earning and preserving wealth. Witnessing the lack of financial education among many hardworking individuals inspired him to pursue a career in financial advising, fuelled by a desire to empower people to make informed decisions about their finances.
Becoming a father himself, Selven specialises in education and retirement planning, treating each portfolio as though it were his own because his own responsibility to his loved ones is felt so keenly.
With a Master’s in Financial Management from Herriot Watt University in Scotland and ten years of experience in credit facilities before wealth management, Selven brings a well-versed perspective to the table; emphasizing his expertise in Economics blended with his passion for Analytical Thinking and Strategy in his favourite theories such as Game Theory, the Prisoner's Dilemma and the Law of Diminishing Marginal Utility to name a few. Selven's ability to synthesize financial and investment decisions based on economic reasoning sets him apart.
Beyond his financial expertise, Selven is an active fellow Rotarian, representing the Rotary Club of Mont Choisy. His engagement in this and other community organizations not only reflects a commitment to social responsibility but also, to his commitment to personal development and servant-hearted leadership.
Growing up in a bilingual African country, characterized by a harmonious blend of diversity, cultures and influences, Selven crafts a bespoke financial experience where exclusivity seamlessly intertwines with prosperity. His unique approach mirrors the essence of luxury, offering clients a distinctive and unparalleled journey through the intricate and vibrant tapestry of African finance.

A WORD OF RECOMMENDATION
During my recent trip to Mauritius, I had the privilege of being onboarded as their client and had the opportunity to meet the team - I was incredibly impressed by their professionalism, depth of knowledge, and commitment to personalized service.
They specialize in crafting tailored offshore solutions for global clients, from asset protection and tax optimization to investment strategies spanning multiple jurisdictions.
Mauritius is not only a stunning island paradise but also a hub for offshore business, offering strategic advantages for international investors and from experience, I believe Carrick Catalyst truly embodies the spirit of excellence in offshore wealth management here.
