We take pride in continuing our association with the CII Mutual Fund Summit. This document presents the perspective of industry stakeholders, along with our points of view, on the current scenario in the mutual fund industry. While a lot has been said about distribution, we have attempted to take an all-encompassing view of the issues and have focussed on looking for the hidden opportunities. We have tried to examine the business structure and its operations in order to find ways of stimulating redesign and innovation. We have also covered regulatory changes—both past and anticipated—as well as some global trends to.
