As 2026 approaches, the world of investment is breaking free from national borders. Mint Horizons, after hosting successful sessions in India's key financial centers, now sets its sights on Kolkata. The event takes place next week, offering local investors a practical guide to spreading their wealth across countries during times of fast economic change.
Why Look Beyond India Today?
Sticking only to Indian assets could mean missing major growth opportunities and tools to manage risk. Global investing is not just for big institutions anymore. For Indian investors, it has become a crucial way to guard against the rupee losing value and to tap into booming sectors like artificial intelligence and worldwide healthcare. These areas often get less attention in local markets.
Kolkata Session Led by Financial Experts
The Kolkata masterclass will be led by Neil Borate, Editor-in-Chief at thefynprint. It aims to make international finance easy to grasp for everyone from wealthy individuals and family offices to regular retail investors.
Focus on the 2026 Global Landscape
The core discussion will explore the theme "Global investing in 2026 & beyond: Themes that look promising vs overvalued." This part helps investors spot long-term winners while avoiding short-lived trends.
Mint Horizons brings together two experienced fund managers for this deep dive: Neil Parikh from PPFAS Mutual Fund and Jay Kothari from DSP Mutual Fund. They will share insights on where to find safety in international markets right now. With global interest rates and political situations shifting constantly, the panel will examine which sectors are overpriced and which overlooked regions offer the best value for Indian portfolios.
Making Global Investing Simple
For many people, the hardest part about investing abroad is not knowing how to start. Complicated rules and high barriers have kept Indian investors away in the past.
To tackle this, Subho Moulik from Appreciate will lead a session called 'Global Investing Made Simple.' This talk will clarify the mechanics of international trades. It covers practical steps, from using the Liberalised Remittance Scheme (LRS) to leveraging digital platforms that make the process smooth. Attendees will get a handy toolkit for making their first global investments.
Key Reasons to Diversify Now
Attending the Kolkata edition helps investors understand three vital aspects of protecting wealth:
- Currency Hedging: Shielding purchasing power from rupee fluctuations.
- Sectoral Access: Investing in top companies like those in the S&P 500 and innovative European firms.
- Risk Mitigation: Reducing the effect of domestic market ups and downs by spreading investments geographically.
