Foreign Investments Declining, CARE Ratings Lists Factors for FPI Outflows
Credit rating agency CARE Ratings released a report recently in which it said that after receiving a healthy amount of foreign portfolio investments (FPI) for 2 years, India is observing a reverse trend in which the outflows are increasing. It said that the net foreign outflows stand at $13.7 billion so far although the net foreign inflows were $15.3 billion last year.  

The agency warned of increasing FPI outflows even in the near future and pointed out 7 key contributing factors which are trade deficit, inflation, rupee value, US Fed rate hike, RBI rate decision, trade disputes, and global liquidity.
