Doubtful notability. Struggling to find any independent in-depth coverage in reliable sources - lack of WP:SIGCOV. Run-of-the-mill businessman. Promotional article, created by a WP:SPA. References provided are either mentions-in-passing or rely almost exclusively on company produced material and/or quotations. Edwardx (talk) 13:42, 15 January 2018 (UTC)

Keep it's true the coverage is here and there but there's a lot of it for a wide variety of roles as an investment exec as well as the ex-husband of a very high profile and notable philanthropist. Ine of their daughters made headlines. His fund launch was fairly recent but there's some coverage on top of all his other work over the years. I think he's worth including and meets guidelines.

 * That someone's former spouse is notable has no bearing, see WP:NOTINHERITED. If you can find WP:SIGCOV, point us to it, or add it to the article. Edwardx (talk) 10:35, 16 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Then show some sources that establish notability without WP:NOTINHERITED. D4iNa4 (talk) 17:38, 1 February 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete -- a promo page on an unremarkable CEO. Being chief executive for nn companies (VSG Capital Advisors and also founded Asha Impact) is almost always GNG / ANYBIO fail, and this is the case here. Wikipedia is not a CV hosting service. K.e.coffman (talk) 03:32, 24 January 2018 (UTC)
