Step 2
Add funds from your Indian bank account
Remit up to $250,000 a year under the RBI's Liberalised Remittance Scheme. Your bank converts the rupees to US dollars at its rate on the day you remit.

Why invest in PRSD from India
What PRSD holds
The State Street Short Duration IG Public & Private Credit ETF, identified by the ticker PRSD, is an actively managed exchange-traded fund. Its primary investment focus is short-term, investment-grade debt, encompassing both publicly traded and privately sourced credit instruments.
Hold a dollar asset
PRSD is priced in US dollars, so a weaker rupee adds to what it's worth in rupees. The rupee depreciated over 85% against the dollar between 2010 and 2025.
Buy a fraction of a unit
Buy by amount, not by unit, and get the matching fraction of one PRSD unit. There is no minimum trade size.
