    New Sebi norms to bar MFs from dumping investors with 'NAV management' fee

    Source: Business Standard Feb 8, 2018

    The chief of a large fund house sits late afternoon every day and dutifully pours over the net asset values (NAVs) of his schemes. After scrutinising the returns for the day, he decides on the expense ratios that need to be charged and deducted for each category. The executive is not alone. In fact, many fund houses, especially those that handle significant institutional money, dabble in what some call "NAV management", which involves adjusting the expenses based on the returns made on the particular day.

    More than half the time of AMCs are spent on institutional investors just to get size for a little or no profit

    Added to that daily variation in charging fee to NAV to keep schemes competitive for institutional investors. Many occasion they forego fees to keep schemes competitive. An aware investor like institutional segment is the beneficiary.

    Do they do it for retail investors for a persisting under performing scheme ?...... I have never seen that.

    AMCS charge more for an under performing schemes just because no one questions them...

    Many investors are continuing in those horribly under performing schemes just because they are so lazy to redeem and punish.??

    So many small, inactive and under performing schemes offer so much profits at the cost of unaware investors

    SEBI has a lot to do in this direction also.

    See how notorious AMCs are and SEBI allowing this practise from such a long time means that SEBI is hands in gloves with them and now to show us that they are strict on AMCs they are taking this step. This is an eyewash. I feel many such charges will be allowed by SEBI which we don't know.
