Mutual Funds
Your Journey to Wealth Begins with Mutual Funds

Mutual Funds are professionally managed investment vehicles that pool money from multiple investors to invest in a diversified portfolio of securities.
Structure of Mutual Funds in India:
In India, mutual funds function as trust created under the Indian Trust Act, 1882. There are three layers of mutual fund in India as follows:
Sponsor:
The sponsor is a person who establishes a mutual fund and gets it registered with Sebi. The sponsor forms the Trust, appoints the Board of Trustees, and has the right to appoint the Asset Management Company (AMC) or the fund manager.
Trustees:
The mutual fund is managed by a Board of Trustees. The trustees act as a protector of unit holders’ interests. They do not directly manage the portfolio of securities and appoint an AMC (with approval of Sebi) for fund management. If an AMC wishes to float additional or different schemes, it will need to be approved by the trustees. Trustees play a critical role in ensuring full compliance with Sebi’s requirements
Asset Management Company:
The AMC is appointed by trustees for managing fund schemes and corpus. An AMC functions under the supervision of its own board of directors and also under the directions of trustees and Sebi. The market regulator has mandated the limit of independent directors to ensure independence in AMC workings.
The other constituents are:
Custodian and depositories:
The fund management includes buying and selling of securities in large volumes. Therefore, keeping a track of such transactions is a specialist function. The custodian is appointed by trustees for safekeeping of physical securities while dematerialised securities holdings are held in a depository through a depository participant. The custodian and depositories work under the instructions of the AMC, although under the overall direction of trustees.
Registrar and transfer agents:
These are responsible for issuing and redeeming units of the mutual fund as well as providing other related services, such as preparation of transfer documents and updating investor records. A fund can carry out these activities in-house or can outsource them. If it is done internally, the fund may charge the scheme for the service at a competitive market rate.
