Britain's Financial Services Authority has approved an application by the Anil-Ambani owned Reliance Asset Management (RAM) to open an office in London.

The company has launched an offshore fund 'Emergent India' targeted at international investors, according to the Wealth Bulletin, a Dow Jones-owned online service for the global wealth management industry.

RAM manager Sunil Singhania said: "The timing for marketing may not be right, but from an investment perspective it is just right. From these levels there is a great opportunity for investors, although there will also be some short-term dips."

Singhania started raising his cash weighting in October in expectation of a market correction. He had 25 per cent in cash at the start of June, but has just started to put the money to work.

The online services reported that: "He (Singhania) likes capital goods and construction companies, where he has been underweight of late. With valuations in these sectors down by more than half, its stocks are starting to look attractive again."

He also likes financial services companies on the grounds that India is under-banked, although he expects the next six months to be tough for the local economy. India is in danger of becoming a hostage to inflation, which has hit 11.4 per cent, due to the rising cost of fuel and food", it added.
