₹10 Cr in an FCNR deposit. What if the capital could be structured differently?

For NRIs, the conversation shouldn’t stop at the interest rate on a deposit. It should start with how capital is deployed, leveraged and made to work.

In this example:
🏦 FCNR-only strategy: ~8.8% XIRR*
🏠 Property + leverage strategy: ~12.2% XIRR*

The concept: Acquire a leased property, unlock capital by taking loan on property, and deploy that capital into another return-generating avenue - while the underlying asset continues to generate potential rental income and appreciation.

At AFINUE, we believe better wealth decisions begin with understanding the structure behind the return.

In this series, we celebrate exceptional EY alumni who transformed experience into category-defining businesses.

This edition features Gerald Chappell, who began his career at EY in Financial Services before becoming a Partner at McKinsey & Company. After years of advising global banks, he identified a fundamental flaw in traditional lending, credit scores often overlooked people who could genuinely afford to borrow.

In 2020, together with fellow EY alumnus Michelle He, he co-founded Abound, an AI-powered fintech using Open Banking and real-time financial behaviour to make lending decisions. Today, the company has originated £1.5 billion+ in loans, secured £2.2 billion in financing, and become one of the UK's fastest-growing technology companies.

It's a story of turning industry insight into infrastructure that challenges how consumer finance works.

This Independence Day, celebrate the nation in motion.

Today, India has 56+ lakh km of roads, 855M tonnes moving through major ports, 238M sq. ft. of warehousing, 83.3M sq. ft. of office space leased in a year, and 160+ airports connecting us to the world.

These aren’t just numbers. They’re the assets powering India’s growth.

Behind every growing economy is an ecosystem of assets spanning infrastructure, energy, mobility, logistics, data, and real estate.

At AFINUE, we bring investors closer to the real assets shaping India’s next chapter.

Because capital, placed in the right assets, can compound both wealth and progress.

Five years ago, we started with a simple conviction: value can be found in the assets that keep businesses moving.

We began with warehouse equipment leasing, a productive assets with the potential to generate recurring cash flows.

That perspective shaped our journey, leading us to explore a broader real-asset investment universe.

Today, AFINUE is taking this approach beyond India, with real-asset opportunities across the Middle East and Southeast Asia, connecting investors with opportunities in global markets.

Celebrating 5 years of evolution.

The next horizon: global.

Most investors compare REITs and InvITs by asking, "Which offers better returns?"

Institutional investors ask a different question:

"Which cash-flow engine fits my portfolio?"

While REITs provide exposure to India's commercial real estate, InvITs unlock access to infrastructure assets that were once reserved for institutions.

As India's listed real asset market surpasses ₹10 lakh crore in managed assets, these investment vehicles are becoming an increasingly important component of diversified portfolios.

Our latest blog explores the differences, portfolio relevance, taxation, risks, and long-term outlook for both.

The City Limousine collapse may have started over a decade ago, but its aftermath is still unfolding.

The biggest financial frauds rarely begin with impossible promises. They begin with believable ones, real assets, polished branding, professional presentations, and just enough credibility to lower your guard.

Today, the same playbook appears across new asset classes, private deals, unregulated schemes, and social media investment pitches.

At AFINUE, we believe wealth is built by questioning assumptions, verifying facts, and investing only after fundamentals stand up to scrutiny.

Would Forest Essentials still be worth thousands of crores if the exact same products were sold in plastic bottles for half the price?
Probably not.

Forest Essentials didn't just sell skincare. It turned Ayurveda into a luxury brand through consistency and craftsmanship.

The real lesson: build something people believe in, not just something people buy. That is how Indian roots become global luxury.

Not every collectible belongs in a display case. Some belong in a portfolio.

Collectibles are evolving from passion purchases into alternative investments. Today, assets such as music catalogues, intellectual property, luxury handbags, rare sneakers, fine art, and other scarce assets are increasingly being valued for their ability to generate income, not just appreciate in value.

As investors look beyond traditional asset classes, the intersection of scarcity, culture, and cash flow is creating a new category of wealth.

In our latest blog, we explore:
• Why income-generating collectibles are gaining momentum
• How intellectual property creates recurring revenue
• What makes scarcity one of the strongest drivers of long-term value
• The opportunities and risks of investing in alternative assets
