“Macroeconomic conditions for India are very good at this moment, with transformation in macros driven by stable government, and low commodity prices, Indian equities are majorly on an attractive side. On the Fixed Income side, we believe the medium term outlook is still positive. Improved government finances and moderate inflation expectations may help lower bond yields in the coming quarters.” said Chief Executive Officer, Jisang Yoo. Further adding to launch of the fund he said, “Given the current economic conditions a fund which aims to captures growth from equities and stability from debt makes more sense.
