NRIs and Investors Explore Alternatives and Hybrid Funds for Diversified India Portfolios
Recent discussions highlight growing interest among NRIs and investors in alternative and hybrid investment strategies in India. Experts like Shiv Gupta and Bhaskar Hazra emphasize allocating 10-20% of portfolios to alternatives such as PMS, AIFs, and private credit for diversification and enhanced returns despite higher risks. Hybrid long-short strategies under Specialised Investment Funds are also gaining traction, challenging traditional arbitrage and balanced advantage funds. Investors are advised to consider valuations, currency risks, and long-term financial goals when allocating to Indian markets.
