How to Align Your Portfolio to Current Interest Rate Environment
Interest rates in India have been trending lower and are currently at 5-year low with repo being at 6.5%. The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has cut repo rate (the rate at which it lends to commercial banks) by a total of 150 basis points (bps) since January 2015, including the latest 25 bps cut in April 2016. While low interest rates are good for borrowers, investors get a hit in their overall portfolio returns. So how do you deal with it? Our cover story of this edition addresses the effect of interest rate changes and suggests how you may align your portfolio for better returns in the current low interest rate environment.
