About the Event

You have been investing for a while now. SIPs, an FD or two, a debt fund somewhere in the mix. You know the basics: start early, stay in equities for the long run, let compounding do its work, diversify for stability.

But what comes next?

If you are ready to move beyond the basics, Outlook Money's The Money Question - More Choices, New Risks: Where Should You Invest? is designed for you.

It is a day of conversations and discussions focused on investment choices such as SIFs, REITs, InvITs, AIFs, PMS, GIFT City products, gold and the fixed-income side of your portfolio, alongside the opportunities and risks emerging within equities.

Where are the opportunities in equities now? Does gold deserve more room in your portfolio? What should the stable, income-generating part of your portfolio look like once the FD stops being the obvious answer? Where do SIFs, PMS and AIFs fit? Should REITs and InvITs become part of your income portfolio? What opportunities does GIFT City open up?

Diversification or clutter? Opportunity or unnecessary exposure?

Find answers to these questions and more at The Money Question on 23 September 2026.

What You Will Learn

Equity

How has sustained uncertainty in recent months changed the equity landscape, and where are the opportunities now?

Debt & Fixed Income

Once the FD stops being the automatic answer, where should the stable part of your portfolio go? How much duration and credit risk is worth taking, and what belongs in the money you cannot afford to lose?

SIFs, AIFs & PMS

Do these investment options belong in your portfolio? How much exposure makes sense, and what should you ask before committing capital?

Gold

Given the recent volatility, how much gold should you hold? Which format works best for your portfolio, and when should you rebalance?

REITs & InvITs

Do they deserve a place in the income-generating part of your portfolio? What should you understand about liquidity and risk before investing?

GIFT City Products

Could GIFT City products open up new avenues for wealth creation and global diversification? What should you know before investing?

Your Portfolio. Live On Stage.
