Founder & CEO, Cafemutual
Dear Friend,
Most of us in the eco-system of the investment management industry, whether as distributors or manufacturers tend to be number oriented and rightly so. After all, any objective measure of performance will necessitate an analysis of numbers. However, achieving results that are measured in numbers (performance, rankings etc.) tend to be the end goal for distributors and manufacturers.
This is where there is a huge disconnect between the consumers of investment products and on the other hand, their manufacturers and distributors.
How?
To the investor, these numbers are merely the means to an end.
While the investors are concerned with real goals such as wealth creation/preservation, saving for children’s education, their own retirement etc., most of us tend to focus on the abstract - how ABC fund is the top ranking fund etc.
Addressing the real needs and concerns of the consumers is the route to success!
To bridge the gap between the real and abstract, we have kept the theme of Cafemutual Confluence 2019 - Real people, Real stories, Real success, we will showcase actual client concerns covering a wide spectrum - from HNIs to Underprivileged, Millennials to the Retired!
Plus there will be a galaxy of experts from inside and outside the industry to talk about markets, trends in the industry and evolving needs of the investors.
I invite you to be a part of this unmissable event!
See you then on October 23 at Taj Lands End, Mumbai!
Warm regards,
Prem Khatri
