Investors in FPI typically do not seek control over the companies in which they invest; instead, they aim for short-to-medium-term financial returns. Think of FPI as purchasing shares in a foreign company without wanting to influence how that company is run.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/kuvera.in\/mutual-funds\/all\/others\/index-funds\/\">Start investing<\/a> in Index Funds.<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Things_to_Remember_about_FPI\"><\/span><b>Things to Remember about FPI<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>1.
