Is it possible to invest in Indian mutual funds from any type of US retirement account (indivi 401k, IRA etc)?


Is it possible to invest in Indian mutual funds from any type of US retirement account (indivi 401k, IRA etc)?

yes. also Indian shares. As long as both are traded in the U S markets. IIF and INF are two to consider. They are closed end funds sold like stocks. 401k for the most part have very limited choices of investments because they are sponcered by your employers. You most likely will not have a choice of an Indian mutual fund.

You should be able to do it for funds not traded on US exchanges as well - at least for IRAs and individual 401ks.

You would need to find a custodian of the account who is willing to buy and sell the shares for you. I'd try a brokerage for that.

Hi.
If you are an NRI - non resident Indian living in the U.S.A (united states of america) and want to invest in the Indian Mutual funds online, then you should contact this website:
