Boyer
Allan may double size to over $100 million
Mumbai: Boyer Allan Investment Management Ltd,
one of the larger hedge funds investing in India, expects
to double its India-specific fund by the middle of next
year.
The fund, launched last year, is currently worth $50 million,
and is seeking to raise money from the US and European
institutions to scale a size of over $100 million by summer.
The fund has a broad-based strategy of investing and does
not particularly have a sector preference in stock picking.
The fund expects good double-digit returns this year from
its Indian investments. The hardening of interest rates
is a sign of the strength of the Indian economy, said
fund officials.
