  • FSSAIM - India Monthly Manager Views - as at February 2022
    We have just returned from India – the first investment research trip in India for our entire team in over two years. It was a liberating break from constantly hearing “You’re on mute!” on video calls whilst simultaneously being forced to appreciate your kids’ music lessons in the adjoining room.
  • The India "exposure"
    “We already have (exposure) to India via our Asia and Regional strategies.” We often hear this comment from prospective clients who are considering an investment in the FSSA Indian Subcontinent strategy, but are not yet convinced that a dedicated allocation would indeed be worth it. Call us biased, but we have been arguing in favour of a standalone investment in India for many years.

  • India - Monthly Manager Views September 2021
    As the saying goes, “There are two kinds of forecasters: those who don't know, and those who don't know they don't know.” Recently, we have seen hordes of the latter kind, garbed as analysts, Unicorn founders, freshly-minted CEOs and so-called “experts”, as they engage in modern-day snake oil salesmanship, which is what seems to pass for Fundamental Equity Research these days.

  • India’s economic resurgence amidst the turbulence

  • Quality at any price?
    Last year, we wrote about the bubble we were witnessing in the initial public offerings (IPOs) in India. Now, we see a different type of bubble forming – in these cases, the business is often a proven one, with a strong track record and high return profiles.
  • Mahindra & Mahindra: A rejuvenation in progress

  • Video - Travelling, rather than arriving, with companies in India
    There have been many disruptions in India over the past decade, with frequent regulatory reforms and a costly Covid-19 experience. However, the positive effects of the reforms are now being seen, with market leaders across sectors gaining rapidly from the formalisation of the economy.

    As the saying goes, those who stand for nothing, fall for everything. And so it is that we believe there isn’t a price for every business.
