AS WEALTH management and financial planning becomes increasingly competitive in Hong Kong, service providers are always on the lookout to offer their customers alternative investment solutions.

Recent options that can be added to an investment portfolio include the potentially lucrative emerging markets of China and India and investment in real estate investment trusts (reits).

India is a rapidly growing nation that is challenging China's title of the growth capital of the world.

The country has been making headlines recently, not only for its growth success but also the volatility of its stock market.

Argyle Street Management chairman V-Nee Yeh said India had two advantages over China. Its businesses were privately owned and most people spoke English.

'India has a highly educated, elite business class,' Mr Yeh said at this year's Wealth Management Conference - Hong Kong 2006, hosted by the Institute of Financial Planners of Hong Kong and Courses & Seminars Ltd.
