Nippon Life India Asset Management Limited (NAM India) has announced the launch of the Nippon India Large Cap Fund GIFT, marking its debut offering from the GIFT City platform. This strategic milestone underscores the firm’s commitment to expanding its global footprint and providing innovative investment opportunities to international investors.
The Nippon India Large Cap Fund GIFT is a feeder fund managed by NAM India’s International Financial Services Centre (IFSC) branch. It channels investments into the flagship Nippon India Large Cap Fund, which boasts a strong 17-year track record. This well-established fund currently manages over ₹35,000 crore in assets under management (AUM) and is renowned for its consistent performance and high-quality portfolio of large-cap stocks.
According to Sundeep Sikka, Executive Director and CEO of NAM India, the launch of this feeder fund is a significant milestone in the company’s journey. By leveraging the GIFT City platform, the fund aims to provide seamless exposure to India’s equity market for global investors, including non-resident Indians (NRIs) and foreign nationals.
This initiative aligns with NAM India’s broader strategy to connect international investors with India’s rapidly growing economy. GIFT City, as a global financial hub, offers an ideal platform for expanding the firm’s presence on the international stage.
Gujarat International Finance Tec-City (GIFT City) has emerged as a hub for global financial activities. By launching the Nippon India Large Cap Fund GIFT, NAM India is taking advantage of the operational efficiencies and regulatory frameworks offered by this innovative financial zone.
The fund will follow the strategy of investing in the Nippon India Large Cap Fund, which focuses on high-quality large-cap stocks. These companies are known for their robust fundamentals and consistent growth, making them attractive for long-term investment.
The fund is tailored for international investors, including NRIs and foreign nationals, seeking to diversify their portfolios and gain exposure to India’s dynamic equity market.
