After spending 12 and half years at NIC Asia Bank (previously NIC Bank) as CEO, Joshi joined Nabil for a four-year term. “I am officially starting work at Nabil from Tuesday,” said Joshi.

Joshi had started his banking career at Nabil as management trainee in 1986, where he spent three years. He then joined Grindlays Bank (now Standard Chartered Bank) in 1989 where he worked for 13 years in different capacities.
