Macro Investment Case

By 2030, India is projected to have a population of one-and-a-half billion people, more than double the size of Europe. The attractive demographic structure with most people under the age of 35 combined with a strong education system and fluent English, are the building blocks for future growth. The potential demand for goods and services from a rising middle class is forecast to drive India to become the second largest economy in the world by 2040.The macroeconomic outlook for India is the best it has been in recent history. Domestic and external circumstances could not be more favourable, making India a bright spot in emerging markets.

 

The Monterosa Group – Long-term investor in India

The company started its investment activities as one of the first foreign portfolio investors in India over 20 years ago. Back in 1995, the Monterosa Group started investing into the country when it was still considered a high-risk frontier market. Since then, India has emerged as a major world market and the Monterosa Group has participated in this journey by investing into hundreds of companies. Today, the company services a diversified portfolio of over USD 3 billion.
