The Robo Investment Advice

When FundsIndia.com announced operations in Robo advisory space people laughed at them. The firm had received huge funding from the Foundation Capital and others. But within a very short span of time there are around 40 companies in India who are offering this service. Being an internet based service; it is catching the eyes of a lot of young people. The objective is to reach out to the young and first-time investors. From registration to execution, little human intervention is needed.

The Robo advisors provide online advice for investments to their clients based upon automated proprietary algorithms where an investor has to register and provide the answers to the questions which decide their risk profile. Robo-financial advisors have strong algorithms at the backend where they create a desired portfolio based on certain parameters like risk profile, performance consistency vis-à-vis benchmark, investible surplus etc.

Based on all this, algorithms generate a Robo investment advice incorporating asset allocation and mostly offer a portfolio made up of debt and equity mutual funds. The securities as advised can be the direct equities or the passive investment tools like index funds, exchange traded funds (ETFs), or mutual funds. All the interactions are digital and around financial goals such as tax planning, saving, regular investment and retirement. Some Robo-advisors primarily offer only mutual funds in terms of transparency, returns and accessibility; these are found to be most appropriate to address goal-based asset allocation needs for retail investors. Some offer insurance and deposits also.

NEW INVESTMENT PRODUCT CATEGORY IS SEBI'S LATEST MOVE COMMENDABLE?

The Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) has introduced a consultation paper proposing a new investment product category aimed at addressing a specific market need. This proposed asset class would offer investment options that sit between mutual funds (MFS) and PMS, filling a gap and providing greater flexibility in portfolio management. The new investment vehicle is designed for investors who are prepared to take on riskier market positions but find PMS schemes or AIFs out of reach. SEBI after reviewing the feedback and finalizing the regulations through stakeholder discussions, may issue the final regulations.

What Is In Store For The Indian Economy?

Until the 2014 Lok Sabha elections, when the Bharatiya Janata Party secured 282 seats and Narendra Modi ascended to power, India experienced 21 years of coalition governments. A decade later, the BJP holds 240 seats in the Lok Sabha, and India is once again governed by a coalition. Fitch has indicated that coalition politics and a weakened mandate for the NDA could hinder the passage of ambitious reform legislation. It raises the question: Do coalition governments impede the economic reform agenda?
