Expanding Horizons

The Indian mutual fund industry, already experiencing record-high assets under management, is poised to attract a more diverse range of investors. Ongoing discussions between regulators and industry bodies revolve around the introduction of a new mutual fund category. This proposed category aims to cater to investors with a high-risk appetite, potentially requiring a higher minimum investment. It may feature relaxed investment norms, allowing for exposure to complex derivatives and other asset classes to generate superior returns.
