A Legal Guide To India’s AIFs, Angel Funds & More

SUMMARY

With the rise of HNIs and investable funds, we have seen a recent shift away from traditional investment avenues and toward sophisticated financial instruments

The drive for attractive risk-adjusted returns coupled with lacklustre returns from fixed income asset classes has opened the avenue of angel investing for many

Despite the post-pandemic recovery being marred by tightening interest rates, geopolitical tensions and tanking valuations, the overall sentiment is that of enthusiasm with an ever-widening pool of angel investors

A common dinner table topic amongst HNI investors is the names of the new business ventures they have invested in with the hope that their bang on the buck would be the new-age disruption. Investors have brewed the perfect coffee bean and realised that as more capital flows there will be more startups, more funding, more exits and consequently more wealth creation. With India housing the third largest number of unicorns after the US and China, the buoyancy in the Indian venture capital investment landscape is note-worthy.  

The drive for attractive risk-adjusted returns with limited public market correlation coupled with lacklustre returns from fixed income asset classes has opened the avenue of angel investing to millennials, Gen Z and younger generations of traditional business families via sophisticated family offices. This has placed venture capital as a favourable alternative asset class.
