High-net-worth individuals turn to private equity, credit amid turbulence in stock markets

Dr Hitesh Punjabi, Assistant Professor - Finance & Law, K J Somaiya Institute of Management, has shared his insights in an article titled ‘High-net-worth individuals turn to private equity, credit amid turbulence in stock markets’ published in The Telegraph Online
The article explores how rising volatility in public equities has prompted HNIs, family offices and institutional investors to explore private equity, credit and P2P lending as viable, stable alternatives.
The shift is being driven by long-term growth potential, lower correlation with public markets and the appeal of early-stage investment opportunities in unlisted firms.
