Skills

Our Principals are well aware of the Indian capital markets and have built an extensive database of companies and various service providers. Over the course of our Principals’ respective careers since 1989, they have met the management of more than 350 corporations in India. They were early entrants in some landmark investments. On top of that, they have experienced and successfully weathered three bull and bear cycles including the Asian Currency Crisis, dotcom bubble and the recent Credit / SubPrime Mortgage Crisis. In addition to their investment management ability, they have built in-depth knowledge and expertise in all aspects of the Indian capital markets including Securities Regulations, Custodian Settlements, Exchange Settlements and Banking Operations. These are complex areas of India’s regulatory framework which require specialized knowledge.

Key Market

India has heralded the second phase of economic liberalization. The growing stability and strength of India’s capital market, currency and foreign reserves reveal investors’ confidence in its increasingly globalized and better managed Indian corporations. Growth led by the export boom in the IT and biotech industries has spilled over to the other sectors. This has been supported by a population that is the second largest in the world – leading to a surge in domestic labor and consumer market. The Government of India has been a catalyst in this process through its well-regulated, investment friendly macro and micro policies, as well as infrastructure. The benefits of these are evidenced by the rise in entrepreneurship and the number of possible mega corporate winners.
