Facilitating Access to SIF, PMS, and AIF Solutions for Sophisticated Investors

Elevating Portfolios with Tailored, High-Conviction Investment Strategies Specialized investment vehicles provide experienced investors and High-Net-Worth Individuals (HNIs) with sophisticated wealth-building strategies that go beyond conventional mutual funds. At GLP Wealth, we facilitate access to curated, professionally managed institutional strategies by partnering with leading SEBI-registered Asset Management Companies (AMCs) and Portfolio Managers.

These solutions cater to investors looking for differentiated asset allocation, alpha generation, and specialized risk-mitigation techniques. Depending on an investor's capital size, liquidity needs, and risk profile, three primary regulated avenues are available:

Key Product Offerings


1. Specialised Investment Funds (SIF)

  • Overview: A specialized asset class introduced under SEBI regulations designed to bridge the gap between traditional retail mutual funds and high-ticket PMS portfolios.
  • Minimum Investment: ₹10 Lakhs (at PAN level across investment strategies within an AMC).
  • Key Focus: Enables fund managers to deploy versatile investment strategies—including derivative hedging, long-short market positions, and factor-based models—with mutual fund-like pooling and operational convenience.

2. Portfolio Management Services (PMS)

  • Overview: Professional management of a tailored portfolio of direct equities, fixed-income securities, or structured products.
  • Minimum Investment: ₹50 Lakhs (statutorily mandated by SEBI).
  • Key Focus: Focuses on concentrated, high-conviction portfolios (typically 15–30 direct stocks). Investors hold individual securities directly in their own demat accounts, enjoying complete transparency, active rebalancing, and direct access to fund management commentary.

3. Alternative Investment Funds (AIF)

  • Overview: Privately pooled investment vehicles established to tap non-traditional, non-correlated high-growth market opportunities.
  • Minimum Investment: ₹1 Crore (for Category I, Category II, and Category III AIFs).
  • Key Focus: Provides access to private equity, venture debt, pre-IPO growth stages, structured credit, and hedge fund/quantitative strategies engineered for portfolio diversification.

Key Takeaways


  • Segmented Entry Thresholds: Clear regulatory investment minimums—₹10 Lakhs for SIF, ₹50 Lakhs for PMS, and ₹1 Crore for AIF—ensure access is aligned with appropriate investor risk capacity.
  • Advanced Strategy Execution: Enables participation in concentrated equity baskets, derivative hedging, unlisted market opportunities, and dynamic asset rebalancing not accessible via traditional mutual fund schemes.
  • Institutional Governance: All underlying strategies are managed by dedicated, SEBI-registered fund management professionals operating under strict reporting, disclosure, and compliance guidelines.
