But if you invested in smaller firm GMM Pfaudler, it would have grown to a whopping ₹14.68 lakh in last five years. Letting your money work as hard as you do is the key to wealth creation. Equity investment remains the preferred mode of wealth creation and sharing.

Diversification with the right mix of asset classes like equity, debt, gold and real assets is the time-tested tool to manage wealth. Each asset class has its own challenges. Check out the factors affecting different asset classes and how to handle your wealth effectively under the circumstances.
This special issue of Business Today goes beyond asset creation — into asset management and protection.
