[A13] - Chapter 13: Alternate Investment Funds AIFs (NISM Series-X-A )

Welcome to Chapter 13 of the DeepStratAI audio masterclass.

In this episode, we step into the exclusive, highly sophisticated world of Alternative Investment Funds (AIFs). Designed for institutional investors and ultra-high-net-worth individuals (with a minimum ticket size of Rs. 1 Crore), AIFs go far beyond traditional stocks and bonds. We strip away the complexity and explain exactly how Venture Capital, Private Equity, and Hedge Funds operate in India under SEBI's watchful eye.

🎧 What You Will Hear:

- What makes an investment "Alternative" (Illiquidity, complexity, and high minimums).
- The 3 SEBI Categories of AIFs broken down simply.
- Category I: Funding the future with Venture Capital, Angel Funds, and Infrastructure Funds.
- Category II: The domain of Private Equity and Private Debt funds.
- Category III: How Hedge Funds use leverage and complex trading strategies.
