RIAs, distributors assess Sebi's new MF-only PMS route under PRIM model
SEBI has opened a new mutual-fund-only portfolio management service route, called the PRIM model. Registered Investment Advisers, or RIAs, like it because clients can see performance clearly and tend to stay longer. Distributors are still waiting for clarity on the final rules. If you run an advisory or distribution business, watch for the final regulations before you change how you serve clients.
Key Statutory Highlights
- RIAs see advantages in SEBI's new mutual-fund-only PMS framework, including better performance visibility.
- RIAs also expect higher customer stickiness under this model, according to experts.
- Distributors are still waiting for clarity on the final regulations.
Actionable Advice for Taxpayers / Founders:Keep an eye out for the final regulations. Until they are clear, it is safer not to restructure your advisory or distribution business based only on this news.
