A peep into the Black Money of India


It is important for us to note that inflation, while a function of growth, is actually caused by money supply growing faster than the rate of economic growth. In essence, Inflation is directly correlated to more cash flowing in the system than required to maintain market equilibrium.

 1.4 Trillion USD estimated to be sitting in Swiss Banks….While the numbers are wild estimates at best and may vary greatly in reality, the fact remains that there is an obscenely large amount of undocumented cash in circulation. 


A lot of black money was being funneled out of India and it actually kept money supply in control but nowadays, this money is re-entering the Indian market via the assistance of financial managers who aim to provide annual returns of between 10 percent - 20 percent. We need to note that it is only common sense to reinvest this money in a market like India, via assets like stocks, bonds, and even real estate rather than let it accrue interest at a paltry one to two percent a year in Switzerland.
