WealthBriefing (June 2013): "Deutsche Asset & Wealth Management appointed Vinit Sahni to expand its services for ultra high net worth clients."
Timing significant: June 2013 = same month as Epstein onboarding. Sahni was brought in specifically for UHNW clients β and Epstein was the marquee UHNW onboarding of that period.
"Financial professional who worked with Paul Morris on large clients and authored market analysis reports."
Sahni authored Epstein trading emails on Indian tech stocks (Infosys) β not merely CC'd. Nav Gupta, the alternative candidate, only appears as CC on such emails, never as author. This authorship pattern strengthens Sahni as the primary coverage team member servicing Epstein's trading needs.
Sahni's co-appearance network includes: Leon Black, Larry Summers, Bruce Kovner, Eddie Stern β major Epstein financial figures. This is a UHNW network, not an FX/trading desk network. Despite the FX/rates indicators in his graph metadata, Sahni's actual co-appearances place him squarely in the Epstein UHNW orbit.
Co-founded "governr" (AI risk company). Previously 20 years at SEI Investments before Deutsche Bank.
MEDIUM-HIGH β HIGH. House Oversight primary emails provide critical new evidence:
Rationale: The direct trading relationship (SahniβEpstein primary emails), personal introduction by Morris, internal market analysis sharing, and Gupta's relegation to CC-only status collectively establish Sahni as the primary coverage team member. The only remaining gap for VERY HIGH is a document explicitly naming Sahni in the Jul 2015 or Jan 2016 escalations.
