smallcase Launches US Stock & ETF smallcases, Bringing Curated Global Investing to Indian Investors
smallcase today announced the launch of US Equities smallcases, enabling Indian investors to invest in professionally curated portfolios of US-listed stocks and global ETFs. Building on the launch of direct US equities earlier this year, the offering expands smallcase's global investing ecosystem by bringing its model portfolio investing experience to international markets.
US Equity smallcases allow investors to discover and invest in professionally managed portfolios built around long-term investment strategies, sectors and themes. With fractional investing enabled, the smallcase app makes global diversification more accessible by allowing investors to invest in companies without having to purchase whole shares, making global strategies accessible at just $50.
The offering is powered by smallcase's end-to-end portfolio investing infrastructure and leverages the International Financial Services Centres Authority (IFSCA) Global Access Provider (GAP) framework. Investments are facilitated through an IFSCA-registered Global Access Provider at GIFT City for US broking services and an IFSCA-registered payment service provider for seamless fund transfers under the Reserve Bank of India's Liberalised Remittance Scheme (LRS).
Speaking on the launch, Vasanth Kamath, Founder & CEO, smallcase, said, "While access to global markets has become easier, deciding where to invest remains a much bigger challenge for Indian investors because the information gap is significantly larger than it is in domestic markets. US stocks and global ETF smallcases bridge that gap by bringing professionally managed global portfolios to investors in a transparent and accessible format. By combining expert portfolio management with features like automatic rebalancing and fractional investing, we're making it easier for Indian investors to build global portfolios with confidence."
US equities smallcases will bring together both existing smallcase managers expanding into global investing and new portfolio managers with deep expertise in US equities, creating a growing ecosystem of professionally managed global strategies. Investors who prefer to research and invest directly in individual US stocks and ETFs can continue to do so through Tickertape - a stock analysis and tools platform, from the smallcase group.
while those looking for professionally constructed portfolios can access US equities smallcases on the smallcase app. Through a unified investment account, investors can seamlessly invest in individual securities on Tickertape and professionally managed US equity portfolios on the smallcase app, choosing the experience that best suits their investing needs.
