India’s asset management industry is vital for economic growth, regulated by key bodies like SEBI, RBI, IRDAI, and PFRDA. SEBI oversees mutual funds, AIFs, and PMS, while the RBI handles foreign investments, and the IRDAI regulates insurance-linked products
The industry includes mutual funds, AIFs, FPIs, FDIs, and REITs/InvITs, with SEBI setting regulations for equity, debt, hybrid funds, and high-risk AIF categories. Compliance with investor protection laws, transparency, and foreign investment restrictions is crucial, along with adherence to the PMLA for KYC and AML procedures.
Emerging trends in digital investment platforms, ESG funds, and private equity investments are reshaping the sector. Staying compliant with regulatory changes and navigating evolving trends will be key for investors and businesses in India’s dynamic asset management market.
