Indian homemakers are among the world's most astute investors, according to Sachin Jain, Regional CEO of the World Gold Council, who praised them on Friday. He said that Indian women have contributed to the country's economic strength over the centuries by amassing small amounts of gold for personal adornment and family wealth.
"A housewife can be easily awarded as the smartest investor in the world because through the millennia, through the lifetime of an Indian housewife, collecting small values and volumes of gold, she's not just bought adornment and wealth in the family, she's created wealth for our nation and that's fundamentally true," Jain said at the NDTV World Summit on 'The Timeless Hedge Fund':Gold in the age of flux.Indian homemakers are among the world's most astute investors, according to Sachin Jain, Regional CEO of the World Gold Council, who praised them on Friday.

Additionally, according to Jain, gold has shown to be a reliable financial anchor and an asset class that has done quite well in turbulent times.
Over the years, Gold has been the anchor who has consistently delivered timeless performances. Not only is it a slumbering asset class, but it has also done incredibly well throughout these turbulent times.
In addition, he emphasised the historical and cultural value of gold, saying that it is woven into India's social fabric."Gold has shown to be the most significant and immovable hedge throughout the course of millennia. We have heard tales of gold in temples, treasuries, and kingdoms. Gold has long been a part of Indian society. Regardless of geography or economic status, everyone consumes gold. Nations are acting differently in the modern world as geopolitics changes. Gold will be a key component of this expansion in the future, according to Jain.Jain expressed his opinions about the current state of the gold market, saying, "What's happening in gold today is unprecedented." This is something we have never seen before. And that is actually a response to the question of what the new, altered geopolitical landscape is. The globe has altered due to the economic crisis and de-dollarization."The price of gold has increased by 56% in 2025," he continued. It has increased by $174 per day in foreign markets. Nations are acting differently in the modern world as geopolitics changes. We anticipate that gold will play a key role in this expansion in the future.
