shalab Posted October 27, 2018 Share Posted October 27, 2018 Looks like the small-cap/mid-cap sector in India has dropped a lot. It has a stable democracy and a good growth rate. One can buy ETFs such as SMIN or INDA. Watsa's vehicle ThomasCook India has dropped by 20% in constant currency and close to 30% against the USD. Looks like one can also open a brokerage account in India as a US Citizen. cheers! shalab Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rohitc99 Posted October 27, 2018 Share Posted October 27, 2018 I think you may want to check the last bit. You need to be atleast a person of indian origin to open an account directly. However not sure if that has changed recently Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shalab Posted October 28, 2018 Author Share Posted October 28, 2018 According to this, one can go through the QFI route. Looks like tradeplus will do the paper work. US citizens can invest is one of two ways. One is through the person of India origin route. Others should go through the QFI (qualified foreign investor) route. https://www.forexnews.com/blog/2013/03/14/investing-in-india/ Here is a blog on how to do it - may be this brokerage will also handle the paperwork: https://blog.tradeplusonline.com/trading-updates/can-a-foreigner-invest-in-indian-stock-market-if-so-is-it-easy-and-worthy/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
