The Indian retail investment market has evolved at a scorching pace in the last 2 years. While investor participation in mutual funds and stock markets continued to make headlines, their appetite for alternative, more specialised investment products is slowly, but surely, shifting the advisory landscape in India.
Global investments had another marquee year, growing at over 166% last year. PMS & AIF strategies became deeply entrenched in retail territory, and non-EPFO AUM is slated to grow 6X over the next decade. Products like Corporate FDs and model-portfolio based ETF and stock baskets are the emerging preferences of a more informed retail investor.
In the coming year, advisers and distributors will be called on to deliver guidance on asset allocation and disciplined investing amidst this profusion of product strategies and capital market euphoria. In the two days of IGAP 2022, we bring together the best minds across mutual funds, ETFs, PMS & AIFs, and global investing to help you do just that.
