We will explore why investing in markets like the US is not just an option but almost mandatory for Indian investors, especially considering the historical outperformance of indices like the S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100 and the continuous depreciation of the Rupee against the Dollar. I'll break down every possible method for you to invest globally: 🔹 Indirect Methods: - International Mutual Funds (Fund of Funds) - Domestic ETFs tracking global indices - The new-age GIFT City Funds 🔹 Direct Methods: - Using international brokers directly - Using convenient Indian platforms like INDmoney or Vested We'll compare all these options side-by-side based on simplicity, regulatory hurdles, costs, taxation, and flexibility, so you can make an informed decision. Finally, I will share my own hybrid strategy for how I plan to allocate 10% of my portfolio to US equities over the next year.
