Platinum Guild International (PGI) has announced a strategic leadership restructuring aimed at accelerating global market development for platinum. Vaishali Banerjee has been appointed Head of Global Market Development, in addition to her current role as Managing Director – India & Middle East.
“This is a transformative time for platinum,” said Banerjee. “We are witnessing a shift in global sentiment towards meaningful consumption. Platinum — with its rarity, preciousness, and enduring value — is perfectly poised to accompany this moment.”
In a further move to reinforce regional leadership, Pallavi Sharma has been promoted to Deputy Country Manager – India & ME. Her elevation underlines PGI’s focus on deepening consumer engagement and retail partnerships in two key markets.
“I’m excited to take on this new role at such a dynamic juncture,” said Sharma. “Platinum’s narrative is evolving rapidly, and our focus will be on deepening consumer connections and expanding retail partnerships to ensure sustainable category growth across India and the UAE.”
These leadership changes come as platinum gains renewed attention for its price advantage and intrinsic value, positioning it for a promising new growth phase globally.
