ETMarkets NRI Talk | Alternatives can account for up to 20% of an NRI's India allocation: Shiv Gupta

Non-Resident Indians (NRIs) looking to invest in India often focus on the stock market. However, a financial expert suggests that allocating a portion of their portfolio to alternative asset classes could be beneficial. These alternatives include Portfolio Management Services (PMS), Alternative Investment Funds (AIFs), and private credit.
Including these options can help diversify an investment portfolio. They may offer the potential for higher returns compared to traditional stocks, but investors should be aware that these assets generally carry higher risk and lower liquidity. This means money invested here may not be easily accessible for a quick sale.
For NRIs, balancing traditional equity investments with these alternative options could be a smart strategy. It allows for a mix of growth potential and risk management. Investors should carefully evaluate their risk tolerance and liquidity needs before making any new allocations.
