MNC’s
these days derive revenues from various geographies, for instance many of the
big companies in the consumer goods, electronics, retail and oil companies are
raking in revenues of up to 55-60% from countries away from the country/region
of origin. Well that explains globalization from an enterprise level. However
as a commoner or a retail investor trying to maximize the wealth what can be
globalized options to build a long term sustainable wealth portfolio.
Apart
from traditional investments which hardly help you beat the inflation and
domestic mutual funds which are prone to volatility in the regional markets,
investors can look at global funds to have an international hedge as part of
the portfolio. These funds can importantly provide you some positive returns
even when the benchmark indices give negative returns and help you beat the
domestic downgrades.
Amongst
a few options compared below in the image, FT India Feeder Fund US
opportunities and BSL International Equity fund come trumps with the way these
funds are created through the FoF route invested in indices of the US stock
market especially.
Investors
to look at options beyond traditional instruments and vanilla mutual funds!!! Happy
Investing!
