    Meet Kerala MFD who sponsored vaccination of 14 office boys working with AMCs

    Johncy Jacob of Thirukochi Financial Services has paid for the vaccination of these office boys on his own.
    Karishma Gagwani Jul 16, 2021

    Office boys are true corona warriors as they ensure uninterrupted and smooth functioning of transactions by collecting/delivering the requisite documents, forms, etc. Their job requires interacting with various people across different locations, thereby making them more vulnerable to the virus. 

    Every time an office boy visits MFD Johncy Jacob of Thirukochi Financial Services, he thinks about his safety. As a small act of kindness, he decided to sponsor their vaccination. 

    Along with a fund house , Johncy has organised a paid vaccination drive through a private hospital for his employees, clients, and their relatives/acquaintances. However, he decided to bear the costs for office boys in this drive. He made a list of office boys working with AMCs with the help of relationship managers and funded their vaccination cost. 

    Johncy said that these employees are not eligible for free vaccination drive as the Kerala government has been holding free vaccination camp only for individual over 45 years of age. 

    The drive was held on June 21 and was open for all in the 18+ category. 140 people benefitted from these drive.

    Social service is good part, but sponsorship for any one AMC's staff puts a question mark for both vise -versa & a compliance issue too for SEBI ..............

    Can call them office staff instead of office boys?

    What a tragedy. This job should have been pro-actively taken up by the AMCs. However, these AMCs are so bogged down with the growth of their AUMs that they care a damn for the office boys who put food on their table. Will the AMCs ever learn? The Fund Managers are worse than software engineers jumping around like a monkey from one AMC to another in search of bettter CTCs and more commissions. On the other hand, the AMCs (are like our politicians who run after vote banks) running around to garner more AUM. Do they really have a active CSR policy ? Ya Allah........in AMCs ko Bachaao!!!!!!!!!!
