An impressive line up of speakers will do justice to the theme of ‘Expanding the Mutual Funds pie’.
The fact that the mutual funds industry has not performed to its potential is well known. With its distinct advantages of low cost, professional management, high transparency, wide range of products and a decent overall track record, mutual funds should have logically emerged as the most preferred investment product. However, the low share of mutual funds among households tells a different story.
To help the industry address some of these issues relating to the growth of the industry, Cafemutual is organizing Cafemutual Confluence 2013 on November 21, 2013 at ITC Grand Maratha, Sahar, Mumbai.
According to Anita Sutrave, Business Head & EVP, Cafemutual,” We got the cue for the theme ‘Expanding the Mutual Funds pie’ after the findings of the recent Cafemutual study of 725 investors in 21 B-15 cities. Not only was the overall awareness of mutual funds low, a shocking finding was that even amongst those aware of mutual funds, MFs were among the least preferred investments. How can the mutual fund industry - AMCs and distributors, expand the industry? More importantly, how can the industry take advantage of the broader trends in our country and set itself up for a long term growth trajectory? These are some of the issues to be deliberated at the event.”
Among the topics to be taken up at Cafemutual Confluence 2013 are:
• Opportunities
and challenges in Fund Management - Panel discussion of
Chief Investment Officers.
• How can distributors grow the mutual fund pie? - Panel discussion of Top

“To do justice to these topics, we are lining up experts, both from inside and outside the industry. We want to ensure that participants walk away with fresh and inspiring thoughts and stimulating ideals. The event will not only add great value to IFAs but representatives from banks, NDs, AMCs and others in the eco-system will gain” said Anita.
