Ever heard “AIF” at a family dinner and just nodded? This course fixes that.

Join Nemi, Dhvani and Tanishq as they figure out how India’s private investment funds really work. You’ll see how rich investors pool money, how fund managers get paid, and who checks that nobody cheats. Every lesson starts with a group chat and ends with one line you’ll actually remember.
