As mutual fund penetration continues to rise in India, asset management companies (AMCs) face the challenge of creating a sandbox—a Proof of Concept (POC) that necessitates a specific investment from management companies. This case study highlights how Softlabs Group, a leading software company, partnered with Nippon, a prominent AMC, to develop a tailor-made digital solution called Mutual Fund Distributor (MFD) to revolutionize the mutual fund distribution process in India.
Softlabs Group recognized the challenges faced by Nippon in recruiting, managing, and tracking a large number of additional Mutual Fund Distributors (MFDs) across diverse regions. The primary challenges identified were:
1. Geographical Reach : Nippon needed to expand its presence in Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities to tap into the untapped potential of the market.
2. Trial Period Management : The management of trial brokerage for MFDs and the trial period for transactions posed significant operational challenges, including tracking and evaluation.
3. Performance Tracking : Nippon required a robust system to track and monitor the achievements and targets of each MFD, along with the unique ARN codes assigned to qualified mutual fund distributors.
Softlabs Group developed a comprehensive MFD solution specifically tailored to address the challenges faced by Nippon, enabling them to transform their mutual fund distribution process. The key features and solutions provided by the MFD tool include:
