An Alternative Investment Fund (AIF) is a privately pooled investment vehicle – set up as Trust, Company, Limited Liability Partnership (LLP) or a Body Corporate – collecting funds from investors of both, Indian & Foreign origin. In India, AIFs are regulated by SEBI & covered under Securities Exchange Board of India (Alternative Investment Funds) Regulations, 2012. We act as Trustee for AIFs set up as a Trust.
AIFs in India have opened a new avenue for Investors, of Indian & Foreign origin, providing diverse investment options in contrast to conventional modes provided by portfolio management services or mutual funds. In the past decade, more specifically after the release of SEBI Regulations for AIFs in India, AIFs have gained huge popularity amongst investors, the likes of which encompass Indian & Foreign corporates, PIOs, NRIs, OCIs, HNIs, etc., envisaging India as a golden investment opportunity. The fact that registered AIFs in India raised INR 212,979.40 Crores on a net cumulative basis till December 31, 2020, posits the preference avid Investors have for Alternative Investment Funds.
