Inflation-indexed bonds are instruments where interest payment and principal will be linked to whole sale price index (WPI) inflation. Currently, these bonds are available at yield of 3.6% above WPI.
The Economic Times quoted Suresh Soni, managing director and CEO of Deutsche Asset Management India, saying, "While globally investors have seen benefits of inflation linked instruments, we believe these instruments are especially relevant for India, given the persistent high inflation level."
Additionally, Deutsche Asset Management India has also launched an offshore fund, called DWS Top Euro-land Offshore Fund, which will invest in European equities.
