Access to Best AIF's in IndiaWhat are Alternative Investment Funds?
AIF’s or Alternative Investment Funds are a preferred choice of investment for HNI’s as they offer non-traditional investment alternatives with a commitment of at least 1 Cr in a single investment. While they are a high risk option and have a long gestation period, they are a good mode to diversify the portfolio. AIF’s are gaining popularity as the stock market and mutual funds are failing to satiate the risk appetite and sophistication of many affluent Indians.
