SEBI has come out with EOP guidelines which hugely impacts how Direct Plans are currently being sold in the country. Read on for finer details:

1) All online platforms to classify themselves as EOP1 or EOP2 which means an Execution-Only Platform

#mutualfunds #directplans #SEBI
2) Background - Most of the online platforms offering Direct Plans operate under the SEBI RIA (advisory) regulations but owing to the size & scale of business they act as mere facilitators of Direct Plans. They dont necessarily give full-fledged advisory services to clients.
3) To bring more clarity around such online platforms, SEBI has issued new circular which allows such platform to move from being advisory in nature to being execution paltforms.

4) All platforms will have to opt one mechanism --EOP 1 or EOP2.

You won’t be able to SELL your #mutualfunds if you haven’t added a nominee to your account.

Starting April 1, 2023, @SEBI_India has asked fund houses to halt transactions for all such investors.

Here’s how to check the status & add a nominee if you haven’t done so already.

A🧵
First, a brief background.

It all started in June 2022.

SEBI asked fund houses to give two options to their investors.

One, nominate a beneficiary for their #investments.

Two, opt out by filling out a declaration form.

The deadline for this is Mar 31, 2023.
If investors fail to provide a nominee or no-nomination form by the deadline, their folios will be frozen.

This means they won't be able to sell or redeem their investment until the necessary details are submitted.

Una cronología del 2do colapso bancario más grande en la historia de EEUU. Las redes están a full con publicaciones sobre #SiliconValleyBank, y la historia es difícil de seguir. Acá un hilo 🧵con un poquito de research para intentar entender mejor cómo se llegó a esta situación
El miércoles pasado, Silicon Valley Bank $SIVB tenía $212 billones en activos y una capitalización de mercado de $16bn. 48 horas después, el banco quebró. ¿CÓMO SE LLEGÓ HASTA ESTA SITUACIÓN CRÍTICA?
La raíz del problema empezó en 2021 cuando las firmas, mayoría #startups respaldadas por #venturecapital, recaudaron $330bn (el doble que el año anterior). Todo esto en un mundo en donde sobraba liquidez, con Fed fund rates de 0,25 %, T-Bonds a 10 años al 1% e inflación de 1,4%

I got a lot of replies and counterarguments to this, so I'm just going to add a few crucial points, on why you should NOT buy this type of insurance plan (in fact ANY kind of life insurance, except term insurance.
First, flexibility. In insurance you sign up for a multi-year payment plan. Next year you could lose your job or you have some stress in your finances. Your agent will still ask for the premium. Surrendering a plan attracts huge charges. This is a major issue in insurance.
In fact if you look at something called the 5 year persistency ratio for the industry on average it is below 50%. Meaning half of the customers have dropped out of paying premiums by this time. In #mutualfunds you get FULL flexibility. Invest when you want, withdraw when you want

Recent circular issued by @SEBI_India issued to @amfiindia & directed the AMCs & MFDs to comply. Being a MFD we all surely will. It further states that we cannot print/ post/ type future returns based on assumptions & projections for which disclaimer was being used (1/n)
Not challenging the decision made but what if the #investor asks that how much is expected returns - What should we say kindly enlighten the MFDs? In case of stocks upsides are always projected by way of Target & this must stop as its misleading. (2/n) @MFSahiHai
Those who distribute #mutualfunds & promote it by misusing the code of conduct in any way stern action is always taken & should always be taken. Professionally we are perfectly in favor of it. Rules & regulations must be abided. (3/n)

म्युच्युअल फंड की स्टॉक - गुंतवणूक नक्की कशात करावी?
बऱ्याच नवीन गुंतवणूकदारांचा स्टॉक विकत घ्यावेत? की म्युच्युअल फंडामध्ये गुंतवणूक करावी? याबाबत गोंधळ उडताना दिसतो. या थ्रेड मधून आपण दोन्हीही पर्यायांची थोडक्यात तुलना करणार आहोत. #Thread #StockMarket #MutualFunds #म #मराठी Image
थेट कंपन्यांच्या स्टॉकमध्ये केलेली गुंतवणूक लॉंग टर्ममध्ये मोठा कॉर्पस निर्माण करू शकते. मात्र बरेच गुंतवणूकदार मार्केटमध्ये शॉर्ट टर्म साठी येणाऱ्या बदलांमुळे भावनिक होऊन खालील चुका करताना दिसतात - #Thread #StockMarket #MutualFunds #म #मराठी Image
१. स्टॉकच्या किमतीत शॉर्ट टर्ममध्ये होणारे चढउतार पाहून खरेदी विक्री करणे.
२. भावनिक होऊन गुंतवणूक करणे किंवा गुंतवणूक काढून घेणे.
३. थोड्या स्टॉक्समध्ये खूप जास्त गुंतवणूक करून डायव्हर्सिफिकेशन न करणे.
४. गुंतवणूक करताना स्टॉकबाबत कोणतीही माहिती न घेणे,रिसर्च न करणे.#Thread #म Image

We have a SPIVA report for #mutualfunds, but what about PMS? Using data from PMS Bazaar, Mint has done a similar study. In most categories, less than 50% of PMS strategies beat their corresponding #mutualfund category. To that, add the unfavourable taxation(tax on booked profits)
There isn't much of an argument for investing in Portfolio Management Services. They have largely grown over the past few years on the back of hefty fees and expenses. This is slowly changing. #Sebi banned upfront commissions in PMS and introduced direct plans only in 2020.
There's much talk about the mushrooming of #mutualfund schemes, but the same has happened with PMS - a vast thicket of strategies offered by each manager. Some portfolio managers have done well, but finding them a priori is very difficult. Better to stick with a simple index fund

A simple hack helps you save tax on #stocks and #mutualfunds.

Here’s what you do:

- Sell your investments
- Book profits & losses
- Repurchase immediately

This is called Tax Harvesting

A 🧵on how it’s done.
Let’s first talk about the #tax on #equities.

The profit you book is divided into two buckets.

1. Shot term: If you sell within one year (of purchase)
2. Long-term: If you sell after one year

You pay a higher tax for short-term profits and lower for long-term (Check table)
Now, let’s jump to the sweet part - how to reduce taxes?

You pay LTCG tax only when your gains exceed Rs 1 lakh.

So the trick is not to let your gains go beyond this tax-free limit.

How to do it? Sell a part of your gains to book LTCG and reinvest it.

An example will help.👇

Some reasons why the Adani Group is still a good investment.

A thread:
1)Adani's strong financials: total assets of ₹10 lakh crore and debt of only ₹1.8 lakh crore show stability and strength. A solid foundation for future growth. #AdaniGroup
2)Adani's ownership structure sets it apart: he personally owns 70% of the company, with only 5-8% in public hands and 10-15% with foreign investors. Unlike other companies listed in stock markets with 55-60% public ownership, Adani's control minimizes risk of manipulation

#Budget2023WishList:
For #MutualFund Industry:
@nsitharaman
1. Removal of #GST for commissions paid to #MutualFundDistributors who cannot recover the same from their investors. Only industry where this happens

We need more #MFDs to achieve goal of reaching Rs.100 lac crs in AUM
Removal of #LTCG from #Equity and #EquityMFSchemes. Will have very low impact on fiscal collections.

But it will improve sentiments and move funds from non-productive assets like #Gold to #FinancialAssets like equity.
#MutualFunds help in mobilizing small savings - channelizing them into building economy thru #Equity & #Debt. This will help in reaching $5 trln GDP target

Direct Plans in #mutualfunds completed 10 years on January 1, 2023.

These plans don’t include commissions, and hence you earn more.

But how much more?

We crunched SIP and Lumpsum data for the past decade to figure it out.

The results are surprising.

A thread 🧵
Let’s begin with some numbers.

Say you chose 3 schemes – an equity, a debt, and a hybrid fund.

You have a monthly SIP of Rs 10,000 each in these schemes for a decade.

👉 Your excess returns are Rs 5.4 lakh (or 6.4%) more than the regular plan.
The trend is similar for lumpsum investments.

Say you invested Rs 5 lakh at once in direct plans of each of these 3 schemes.

Total lumpsum amount = Rs 15 lakh

In this case, the corpus would be bigger by Rs 7.9 lakh (or 10.3%).

#economy of #cigarettes: Cost, returns (if invested), impact on #Health

1. A pack of cigarettes costs Rs 330. For a month, it would cost Rs 9900 (one pack/day).
A 30-year old person has the option of smoking one pack/day or investing this amount in #mutualfunds via #SIP route.
2. If Rs 10000/ is invested every month in mutual funds via SIP route (since age 30) and the expected return is 10% per annum, the savings would become a whopping 2.28 crores after 30 years (when he turns 60).
3. In addition, not smoking would reduce the risk of #heartattack, #stroke and several #cancers.
Medical insurance premium would also be lower.
So, healthcare costs would be significantly lesser for a non-smoker (as compared to a smoker).
