Friends,

"The future belongs to those who prepare for it today." ~ Malcolm X

Passives are the future; even though many do not recognise it.

Look at the facts.

  • There is already ₹6.65 lakh crore invested in Passives as on January 2023. And of the total AUM of ₹1.35 lakh crore in index funds, the retail contribution accounts for nearly 30% of the total index AUM. And this is only bound to get bigger.
  • In fact, in the calendar year 2022, 123 passive funds were launched against 48 launches in active funds.
  • Globally, it has been many years since passive funds surpassed active funds in size and popularity. And it is only a matter of time before India too catches up with the global trend

Friends Currently, most mutual fund distributors look at Passives with a mix of indifference and wariness overlooking the tremendous potential. Much of it is due to the ‘business economics’ of Passives. However, that is missing the wood for the trees.

In this context, I invite you to Cafemutual Passives Conference 2023 where we will deliberate among other things on the opportunities for mutual fund distributors and how they can capitalise on it. Take a look at the Agenda to see how comprehensively, we will discuss all aspects of Passives so that you walk away with clarity and conviction.

See you on May 12, 2023 at the Taj Lands End, Mumbai!

Ciao

Here’s what our happy attendees
from the last event have to say

I am a regular at Cafemutual events for the last 10 years. The topics are innovative and address the problems that we as distributors and advisors face. We definitely take away learnings from each event and try to implement in our business. Cafemutual events are practice-oriented and very engaging at the same time. I keep looking forward to these events.

Cafemutual events come up with different themes and help to get an in-depth understanding of the subject matter. They also help us understand the upcoming trends. Besides, Cafemutual events also facilitate meeting our fraternity members including industry experts and fellow MFDs/RIAs.

I like the innovation and the structure of Cafemutual events. Each time it’s a bit different. Obviously, the content is very topical and there is an opportunity to interact with brethren from the industry. All of these things are a big plus for me to attend Cafemutual events.
