The chapter explores the challenge of separating signal from noise in an information-saturated world and shares strategies for developing independent thinking and focusing on long-term investments while avoiding reacting to short-term news.
I talk to Nilesh Shah, Managing Director of Kotak Mahindra Asset Management Company. Nilesh has over 31 years of experience in capital markets and has managed funds across equity, fixed income and real estate for Indian and global investors. While this is my first interaction with Nilesh, I have looked up to him for the last 20 years, ever since I took my first steps in the investment industry in 2003. In this episode, Nilesh talks about the transformation of India, lifelong learning, importance of humility in investing, spirituality, and much more.
