Why invest in EHYG from India
What EHYG holds
The investment objective of the Fund is to seek to provide investors with a total return, taking into account both capital and income returns, which reflects the return of the Bloomberg Barclays MSCI US Corporate High Yield Sustainable BB+ SRI Bond Index.
Outside US estate tax
EHYG is domiciled in Ireland, not the US, so it is not a US-situs asset and US estate tax does not apply to it.
Dividends reinvested for you
Dividends from EHYG's holdings are reinvested inside the fund, so nothing is paid out to you and there is no dividend to declare in India.
Paasa handles the paperwork
Investing abroad brings paperwork with it: remittance filings, capital gains reporting, foreign asset disclosure. Paasa prepares all of it for you. Your India-ready tax reports arrive at year end, ready to file.
Why EHYG's UCITS structure matters for Indian investors
EHYG is domiciled in Ireland, not the US, so it is not a US-situs asset and US estate tax does not apply to it.
