HSBC Reopens Three International Mutual Funds for Fresh SIP Investments
HSBC has reopened three mutual funds that invest in markets outside India.
People can now start new SIPs or make lump-sum investments in these funds.
The funds focus on emerging markets, Asia-Pacific markets excluding Japan, and Brazil.
Each investor can invest up to ₹2 lakh per month.
The funds had different returns over one, three, and five years.
The strongest one-year return came from the Global Emerging Markets Fund.
International funds can sometimes stop accepting new money when investment limits are reached.
Investors should consider their goals and risks instead of investing only because a fund has reopened.
HSBC Mutual Fund reopened three international schemes to fresh SIPs and lump-sum investments from 18 August.
The funds are HSBC Global Emerging Markets, HSBC Asia Pacific (ex-Japan) Dividend Yield and HSBC Brazil Fund.
New investments in each scheme are capped at ₹2 lakh per month.
As of 19 August 2026, the funds’ one-year direct-plan returns ranged from 28.9% to 53.6%.
The reopening reflects available overseas investment capacity and does not by itself make investing appropriate.
