Anshul Saigal is a private investor who brings nearly 20 years of investing experience across institutions including Kotak Mahindra AMC, JP Morgan Chase, and Standard Chartered Bank. Formerly Head of PMS and CIO at Kotak Mahindra AMC, he shares how he built wealth from the ground up through disciplined investing, risk-taking, and long-term thinking.
In this conversation, Anshul explains why the ability to tolerate volatility is a key investing advantage, how he deployed capital during the 2008 financial crisis, and why investor behaviour matters more than information. He breaks down valuation versus narrative, the risks of overpaying for growth, the psychology behind market cycles, and his framework for challenging investment theses through inversion.
The discussion also covers India’s long-term opportunity, the AI and Magnificent Seven debate, portfolio construction, behavioural biases, and the principles that have shaped his investing journey.
