The pandemic has taught us many crucial life lessons, especially when it came to financial discipline and the importance of savings.

Should young people invest in realty?
By Priya Sunder Director – PeakAlpha Investments, Article published in Hindustan Times
Home loans are considered as ‘good loans’ because you are building an asset through them and they draw tax benefits. Even then, loan repayment is a costly proposition and can overwhelm young earners as their income and saving is not stable at this stage in their career.
“When you take a home loan, you are essentially taking up equated monthly installments (EMIs) based on future income. For a young earner, the assumption here is that she will earn a certain income tomorrow and continue to pay the loan over the next 15-20 years. At this point in one’s career, that future income stream is uncertain, particularly in today’s job environment,” said Priya Sunder, director, PeakAlpha Investment Services.

Financial Tips To Help Your Ageing Parents With Their Investments
By Kiran Riyaz, Wealth Manager – PeakAlpha Investments, Published in Femina India
We frequently come across studies on child-rearing. However, you’re at a loss when it comes to caring for ageing parents. The caregiving role in most households gradually changes from parent to child. This gets considerably more difficult if one parent is no longer alive or if the spouse who was in charge of finances has passed away. Money is a touchy subject that is frequently avoided in open discussions between parents and children. However, we cannot deny that our ability to assist ageing parents in living a dignified life is often dependent on our financial resources. So, how can we ensure that our parents’ financial situation is in good shape? What kind of help can we give them to equip them without crossing lines? Kiran Riyaz, Certified Financial Planner and Portfolio Manager, at PeakAlpha Investments P Ltd, list out what one can do.
