Hello, this is Priyanka Salve, writing to you from Singapore. Welcome to the latest edition of " Inside India " — your one-stop destination for stories and developments from the world's fastest-growing large economy. As global capital races toward America on AI boom and industrial revival, India's once-compelling investment story is facing uncomfortable questions.

Canadian fund manager Mackenzie Investments has laid off a number of portfolio managers as part of a broader restructuring, according to people familiar with the matter. The firm cut staff in the investment management, technology and product divisions, said the people, who asked not to be identified because the matter is confidential. Mackenzie, a unit of IGM Financial Inc. , one of Canada’s largest mutual fund and wealth managers, didn’t respond to requests for comment. This month, the firm made a series of changes to its manager and product lineup, including changes to a global small-and-mid cap equity fund and to US mid-cap equity and fixed income strategies. Arup Datta was assigned the role of portfolio manager for the several small- and mid-cap equity funds. Phil Taller , who previously held a similar role, has left the firm, according to his LinkedIn profile. Mutual fund providers have struggled as investors shifted money into lower-cost exchange-traded funds and other vehicles, pressuring traditional firms to create new products, reduce costs, trim fees and improve performance. Mackenzie’s net mutual fund redemptions were C$256 million ($186 million) in the first quarter , down from C$700 million in the same period last year. The firm had C$246 billion of assets under management as of March 31. IGM Financial is controlled by Power Corp. of Canada, the holding company of the Desmarais family of Quebec.

Containers at a shipping terminal in Yokohama, Japan on Oct. 18, 2021. Japan's trade deficit surged in September as imports overwhelmed export growth. Kiyoshi Ota | Bloomberg | Getty Images Japan's exports climbed 14.8% in April, the fastest pace since January and solidly beating expectations. The figure was sharply higher than the 9.3% expected from Reuters, and up from an 11.5% rise in March. Imports to Japan increased 9.7 % year-on-year, versus an expected 8.3% rise. This, however, softened from the 10.9% rise in the previous month. The yen strengthened marginally against the dollar, trading at 158.88. GDP data on Tuesday had shown that net exports were still one of Japan's main economic drivers, with the economy expanding 0.5% quarter on quarter and 2.1% on an annualized basis. Japan is currently struggling with a weak yen, having spent a reported 10 trillion yen on intervening in the yen at end of April and the start of May. While a weak yen is likely to boost exports, it also causes domestic worries by pushing up imported inflation and weakening purchasing power. Japanese core inflation data for April are due Friday. The measure accelerated for the first time in five months in March, rising to 1.8% as the Iran war fuels worries around energy prices. This is breaking news, please check back for updates.
