The ET Alpha Wealth Summit 2.0 will be held in Mumbai on October 8, focusing on how India's largest family offices and institutional investors are shifting capital toward alternative assets such as private credit, venture debt and co-investments. The summit will feature a panel including Ashish Shankar, Pranob Gupta, Rahul Jain and Sandeep Das, who will discuss strategies for generating differentiated returns beyond conventional stocks and bonds.
Retail investors often track institutional allocation decisions for clues about emerging opportunities. While family offices and institutional investors have longer horizons and different risk frameworks, their growing interest in private markets signals a broader shift. The session, titled Following Smart Money, will examine how these investors evaluate risk-adjusted returns outside listed markets and where they see risks building up.
Indian Opinion Analysis
Family offices in India have grown in number and assets under management over the past decade, driven by wealth creation in startups and listed equities. Their turn toward private credit and venture debt reflects a search for yield in a market where traditional fixed-income returns have narrowed. Private credit deals in India are typically structured as secured lending to mid-sized firms, offering returns of 14-18% annually, according to market participants. Retail investors cannot directly access most of these deals, which require accredited investor status and high minimum commitments. The October 8 panel will provide a window into how large allocators think about liquidity and risk in less liquid assets.
