Investment thesis
GII views India as an attractive, fast-growing market and has focused its India Growth Portfolio on the healthcare sector, which it considers non-cyclical and structurally undersupplied. The firm points to demand drivers such as an ageing population, rising lifestyle diseases, and the COVID-19 pandemic. Its first India Growth Portfolio (IGP-I), launched in 2020, took significant minority stakes in a multispecialty hospital chain and a leading in-vitro diagnostics manufacturer. A second instalment, IGP-II, was slated for Q3 2021 with a broader multi-sector mandate and over $50 million in investment opportunities.
