We are bringing global best practices to India

Our value proposition is how we differentiate ourselves. How we provide something that is unique at the right price point. As an asset manager, we want to cater to the entire spectrum of investors. That is why we started with cash funds, which predominantly cater to corporate treasuries and the institutional sector.

Then we started with core building blocks-the five index funds that we launched. These are the kind of exposures that make a lot of sense for an individual to start building the portfolio of investments. We would like to take them to a more advanced state of that journey, rather than a single stock or a single trade.

Nuclear governance: caution to confidence

Nuclear power has long occupied a singular and somewhat uneasy place in Bharat's public imagination. It has been viewed, often with pride, as proof of scientific achievement and strategic resolve, yet governed with a restraint that reflected a deeper discomfort with the diffusion of risk.

The battle of words

As young adults we certainly used abbreviations and cryptic phrases. But MC and BC did not stand for the master of ceremonies and the era before Christ.
