Connecting investors, organisations and entrepreneurs to opportunities across real estate, commodities and listed markets in both countries.
Capital moves badly between India and South Africa, and not for want of opportunity. It moves badly because the information does not travel: an investor in Mumbai cannot easily read a Cape Town property market, and a family office in Johannesburg has no reliable way to assess an Indian industrial park.
INDSAF Investments works on that gap. The foundation does not manage money. It convenes the people who do, builds the briefings that make a market legible, and makes introductions between serious parties on both sides.
What it does
The work
Real estate
Residential, commercial and industrial property in both countries: how the markets work, how ownership and repatriation actually function, and who is credible locally.
Commodities
Investable commodities across the corridor, drawing on the trade that already exists in minerals, metals, fuels and agricultural goods.
Listed markets
Orientation on the Indian exchanges and the JSE for investors approaching the other market for the first time.
Briefings and introductions
Member briefings on regulation, tax treatment and currency, and introductions to advisers, custodians and counterparties who have done it before.
Both directions
It runs each way
Every INDSAF programme is bilateral by design. Neither country is the default origin.
India to South Africa
Indian investors and organisations reaching South African property, resources and listed markets, and the advisers who can execute there.
South Africa to India
South African investors and organisations reaching Indian property, infrastructure and capital markets, with the same standard of local counsel.
