India boosts foreign investment limit to US$75b

In hopes of buoying the rocketing current account deficit.

According to BBVA Research, in their latest bid to attract capital inflows to help finance the high current account deficit and arrest further rupee weakness, the Indian authorities last Friday raised the foreign institutional investor (FII) limits on government securities and corporate bonds.

"The raise is by USD 5bn each (to US$75bn) (only long-term investors such as sovereign funds, insurance funds, pension funds and central banks are allowed to invest). The government is also currently mulling over whether to further liberalize external commercial borrowings for Indian companies," BBVA added.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
