Indian economy has potential to do much better than China in near future: Jim Rogers
India is going to be one of the most exciting investment destinations in the world and it will certainly be compared to China and, maybe, even do much better than China in coming years, ace investor Jim Rogers has said. In an interaction with IANS, he said that 'I have been around the investment world for decades, and for the first time in my life, I see that the people in Delhi understand economics'. 'India's rising again. I think that the people in Delhi understand what needs to be done and are trying to do it. And that would be so wonderful for India and for the world. If India can actually open up and have trade with the whole world. You cannot believe how exciting India can be in the future,' said the American investor and financial commentator. 'I don't have investments in India right now, but I really, really want to invest more in the fastest-growing economy,' he added, adding that if the market goes down and stays down for a while, 'I want to put more money in India'. ndia is poised to become the world's fourth-largest economy in 2025 with the country's nominal GDP rising to $4,187.017 billion during the year to surpass Japan's GDP pegged at $4,186.431 billion, according to the IMF's latest 'World Economic Outlook' report. On free trade agreement (FTAs), Rogers told IANS that more free trade is better for the world, especially India. 'It will be extremely exciting for the world, including foreign investors,' he mentioned. India has signed 13 FTAs with its trading partners. The country is currently negotiating the following FTAs with its trading partners: India-EU FTA, India Australia Comprehensive Economic Cooperation Agreement (CECA), India-Peru Trade Agreement, covering goods, services and investment, India-Sri Lanka Economic and Technical Cooperation Agreement (ETCA) and India-Oman FTA. India and the United Kingdom have signed a landmark FTA, momentous not only in quantitative magnitude -- encompassing reductions across 90 per cent of tariff lines -- but also in its emblematic stature as a recalibration of post-globalisation economic strategy. The FTA signal a new global trade strategy, bypassing China's dependence, navigating US tariffs and reshaping post BREXIT Britain, according to an SBI report. Moreover, India has also initiated review of its existing FTAs, namely, India-South Korea Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement (CEPA), and ASEAN-India Trade in Goods Agreement (AITIGA).

India, Pakistan should do their best to avoid war: Jim Rogers
New Delhi: Global investor Jim Rogers on Saturday said that India and Pakistan will do their best to avoid the war, as both the countries agreed on a full and immediate ceasefire. India on May 7 launched 'Operation Sindoor' targeting terror infrastructure in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK) to avenge the lives of 26 people barbarically killed in Pahalgam on April 22. This was followed by days of heightened tensions. 'I hope you (India) will stay out of war. You're going to be such a fantastic country in the future. Please avoid war,' Rogers told IANS. 'I hope that the US will stop it or do their best to stop it. I hope everybody will do their best to stop it,' he added. He further stated that 'small war started here and there can lead to big ones', affecting the global economic order. The American investor and financial commentator, based in Singapore, also informed of his plans to invest in India, 'if there is no war'. "I am very keen on India. I hope you can pull it off. I hope this war goes away soon,' Rogers told IANS. US President Donald Trump announced that India and Pakistan have agreed to a 'full and immediate" ceasefire. 'After a long night of talks mediated by the United States, I am pleased to announce that India and Pakistan have agreed to a full and immediate ceasefire," Trump wrote on Truth Social, the social media platform he owns. 'Congratulations to both Countries on using Common Sense and Great Intelligence. Thank you for your attention to this matter!" he added. Secretary of State Rubio said in a State Department statement that he and Vice-President, J.D. Vance, conducted these talks. 'India and Pakistan have today worked out an understanding on stoppage of firing and military action. India has consistently maintained a firm and uncompromising stance against terrorism in all its forms and manifestations. It will continue to do so,' External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar posted on X.

IMF loan to Pak: Terror financing is absurd and must be stopped, says global investor Jim Rogers
New Delhi: After the International Monetary Fund (IMF) approved the disbursement of $1 billion to Pakistan despite India's stern warning over such funds being used by the neighbouring country to sponsor terrorism, veteran global investor Jim Rogers on Saturday said that the financing of terror is 'absurd' which must be stopped. India has firmly opposed providing funds to a country that continues to sponsor cross-border terrorism, warning that such support carries reputational risks for global institutions and undermines international norms, according to government sources. In an interaction with IANS, 82-year-old Rogers said he is against terror financing by global organisations, hailing India's efforts to defend its borders. 'I am certainly against terror financing, and I hope the whole world is. Terror financing is absurd; terrorists are absurd,' Rogers emphasised. On the ongoing conflict between the countries, the American investor and financial commentator based in Singapore said: 'India is right in defending its borders. Every country is always right in defending its borders'. 'But the question always becomes who is actually defending the borders and who is attacking,' he said, adding that 'India is one of the great and exciting countries in the world'. Political leaders and experts have expressed serious concern over the IMF reimbursement to Pakistan, stressing that this would not help de-escalation of hostilities between India and Pakistan. India has strongly opposed further financial assistance from the IMF to Pakistan. 'Rewarding continued sponsorship of cross-border terrorism sends a dangerous message,' the Finance Ministry said in a statement. 'It exposes funding agencies and donors to reputational risks and undermines global values,' the Ministry added. According to government sources, India abstained from the IMF vote on approving a loan to Pakistan not due to a lack of opposition, but because IMF rules do not permit a formal 'no' vote. By abstaining, India conveyed its strong dissent within the constraints of the IMF's voting system and used the opportunity to formally record its objections. India questioned the effectiveness of ongoing IMF assistance, noting that Pakistan has received support in 28 of the past 35 years including four programmes in just the last five without meaningful or lasting reform, according to sources.
