In the midst of an inflationary environment with high volatility and stretched valuations in the Indian equity markets, how does one still find value? Does value investing work in a growth economy? How does India compare to other emerging markets in Asia such as China, Korea and Indonesia? Using best investment ideas from the panelist, the panel would discuss issues facing investors in India-choosing the right investment horizon and the right businesses, currency exposure and incorporating uncertainty and volatility in discount rates.

A group of veteran US journalists discusses how the media views India’s growth as well as its challenges. What does the future hold for Incredible India? Has India’s image changed from the land of naked sadhus and snake charmers to the lively, genuine and stable parliamentary democracy? What are the opportunities and pitfalls for India? This plenary session is also a great opportunity to ask questions about how the press chooses what kind of stories to cover and other critical issues.
