According to data from the Reserve Bank, the amount to be invested in international stocks and bonds rose by 58% to $747 million in FY22. Information shows that in March, it was $104.5 million.

Under the current rules, domestic mutual funds can invest up to $7 billion in foreign stocks and an additional $1 billion in exchange-traded funds (ETFs).

Even though investor tastes have changed a lot over the years, the rules set in 2007-2008 have not been changed. The Mutual Fund Association of India (Amfi) is talking with SEBI and the Reserve Bank about how to solve this problem.

Here are some tried-and-true ways to make money in U.S. markets:

ETFs

Investing directly in stocks requires a certain level of knowledge. Without it, investors could lose money. But you can choose to invest in mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs), which give you access to several U.S. stocks at once. ETFs also give you access to certain sectors, like healthcare or energy, by letting you buy an ETF that tracks these sectors instead of buying stocks in these sectors individually.

Today, Indians are also interested in investing in theme-based ETFs, which, instead of investing in specific sectors, focus on emerging themes like energy, electric vehicles, cloud computing, mobility, or even global ETFs that offer broad, diversified exposure to U.S. and global – European, BRICs, and emerging and frontier – equity markets. Since ETFs are passively managed, their expense ratios are lower than those of actively managed mutual funds. An expense ratio is a measure of how much of a fund’s assets are used for administrative and other operating costs.
