Similarly, investment in property went up to $112.9 million from $45.54 million during the same period. "Diversification, both geographically and from a currency perspective does make sense from an asset allocation standpoint," says Lakshmi Iyer, CEO, Kotak Investment Advisors.
Agrees Pritam Patnaik, Head - Commodities, HNI & NRI Acquisitions, Axis Securities "Global investment helps to divide your risks between multiple markets (India and the US). Additionally, it provides exposure to various companies and industries currently missing in India, such as Artificial intelligence, CRISPR, etc."

In March 2022, the Indian stock market had a market cap of $3.21 trillion, while the market cap of the US stood at a whopping $47.32 trillion. Second is the liquidity: The US markets are much more liquid than the Indian markets. This means that it is easier to buy and sell stocks in the US market as there is always someone willing to trade.
