What is FII / FPI?
Also called: Foreign institutional investor, Foreign portfolio investor
Hinglish mein padhein: FII aur FPI kya hote hain?
Foreign portfolio investors (still often called FIIs) are overseas funds and institutions that invest in Indian stocks and bonds.
Their daily buying and selling is published by the exchanges and closely watched because large flows can move the market.
FPI flows depend on global interest rates, the rupee and India's growth outlook compared with other markets.
