Capital One has launched Donatello, a dedicated Bespoke Private Wealth Management concept designed to serve High-Net-Worth (HNW) and Ultra-High-Net-Worth (UHNW) clients in Sri Lanka.

Officially launched on September 25, 2026, Donatello combines Capital One’s expertise in investment banking and personalised wealth management with a dedicated lounge inspired by art and culture. The concept has been developed to provide private wealth clients with an environment that goes beyond conventional financial services, incorporating their interests in culture, collecting and legacy into the wealth management experience.

The initiative represents Capital One’s latest investment in strengthening its offering for the country’s private wealth segment, building on the company’s experience in relationship-led investment banking and personalised financial advisory services.

A Personalised Approach to Wealth Management

Donatello is designed around the principle that wealth management extends beyond managing a client’s existing assets. The service seeks to understand clients’ long-term financial objectives and develop strategies aligned with their individual priorities and aspirations.

Veranga Vithanaarachchi, Founder and Group Managing Director of Capital One, said that effective wealth management involves understanding what clients want their wealth to achieve over time.

According to Vithanaarachchi, the Donatello concept brings together art, culture, specialised access and Capital One’s investment expertise to create a setting where private wealth discussions can take place outside the traditional banking environment.

Through its Bespoke Private Wealth Management offering, Capital One will provide clients with customised investment strategies, wealth planning, estate planning and investment advisory services. Donatello will also offer concierge facilities as part of its broader client experience.

Where Wealth Meets Art and Culture

A defining feature of Donatello is its integration of art and Sri Lankan culture into the wealth management environment. The dedicated lounge has been designed to provide a setting where financial discussions can take place alongside an appreciation of art and cultural heritage.

The approach reflects the connection between wealth, collecting, cultural interests and legacy, particularly among clients who view wealth not only in terms of financial assets but also in relation to personal values, family heritage and long-term succession.

By incorporating these elements into the client experience, Donatello seeks to create a distinctive environment for conversations surrounding investment, wealth planning and legacy.

Dedicated Offering for HNW and UHNW Clients

The launch represents a targeted expansion of Capital One’s services for the HNW and UHNW market in Sri Lanka. Rather than offering a standardised wealth management model, the Donatello concept is focused on personalised relationships and tailored financial solutions.

Clients will have access to Capital One’s investment knowledge and advisory capabilities, supported by services designed around their individual financial circumstances and long-term objectives.

The addition of concierge services further broadens the offering, creating a more comprehensive client experience alongside the financial advisory services.

Strengthening Sri Lanka’s Private Wealth Management Landscape

With Donatello, Capital One is positioning its Bespoke Private Wealth Management offering around a combination of financial expertise, personalised advisory and a distinctive client environment.

The initiative brings together investment strategy, wealth and estate planning, advisory services, art and cultural appreciation within a single concept. It also reflects the company’s focus on developing specialised services for clients seeking more personalised approaches to managing and planning their wealth.

The launch of Donatello marks another step in Capital One’s development of its private wealth management proposition, providing HNW and UHNW clients with a dedicated setting where financial planning, investment expertise and long-term legacy considerations can be addressed through a relationship-led approach.
