Inspite of the global economic slowdown, investment inflow into India, in a long term perspective will be robust, a Mumbai-based financial services expert has said.

"In the next few months you may not see great inflow. But from a longer-term perspective, yes, the inflow will continue to be robust," Krishna Kumar Karwa, Managing Director of Emkay Global Financial Services Ltd said yesterday.

Speaking to PTI at the end of a two-day CONFLUENCE, an investor meet, Karwa said, "the response from the prospective investors was overwhelming".
