As an Indian investor, you have found comfort in two places traditionally, one is fixed income and the other is gold. Fixed income investors, whose investment objective over the years has been to grow their capital at a steady rate which can outdo inflation in the long run, have found equities as a necessary ally - however, the accompanied volatility at times may have given you sleepless nights. The question to be asked is whether there exists an asset class which can do the job of protecting portfolio from the impact of inflation, without overly relying on equities. Well, the answer is Gold. The shiny yellow metal has been regarded as an effective hedge against inflation, and is known to preserve the purchasing power over a long period of time. Religare MIP Plus fits the bill in this regard, by combining asset classes like debt, equity and gold (through Gold ETFs) in a portfolio, not only it lends a steady look, but also reduces the volatility of equities to a large extent. |
