Cafemutual is a wonderful platform for IFAs and distributors of mutual funds and other financial products. The platform has added immense value to the distribution fraternity sharing latest fund and industry updates, knowledge series', success stories, business development ideas, motivational content and more - developed in-house and from several leaders in the industry across areas of economy, politics and others. I believe the platform gives IFAs a broader perspective and helps them expand their horizons. Cafemutual Confluence and CIFA events are also fantastic initiatives where IFAs and others get an opportunity to engage, share knowledge and grow together. Kudos to their spirit of enabling the community to grow.
