The Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) has introduced a consultation paper proposing a new investment product category aimed at addressing a specific market need. This proposed asset class would offer investment options that sit between mutual funds (MFS) and PMS, filling a gap and providing greater flexibility in portfolio management. The new investment vehicle is designed for investors who are prepared to take on riskier market positions but find PMS schemes or AIFs out of reach.
SEBI after reviewing the feedback and finalizing the regulations through stakeholder discussions, may issue the final regulations.
In the current bull market, new investors are eagerly looking for investment products that promise rapid returns. Meanwhile, seasoned investors who have successfully navigated various market cycles and earned from stocks or mutual funds are seeking opportunities that offer higher risks and potentially greater rewards. However, the regulated investment options available for such investors come with high entry barriers. For instance, Portfolio Management Schemes (PMS) require a minimum investment of Rs50 lakh, and Alternative Investment Funds (AIFs) demand an entry amount of Rs1 crore. Investors who have investible assets of Rs50 lakh or more might be reluctant to commit their entire portfolio to a single investment manager due to the high ticket sizes involved.
