industry is on a constant growth and has given better returns than the benchmark indices and
sometimes even better than the mutual funds.

While making this report, lot of data has been gathered to study in depth of PMS industry.
st
Dated as on 31 December, 2017; I could find out that

their investment horizon, risk appetite and financial goals. These companies have different
ways of portraying their schemes in front of their clients; few of them are unique which has
potential to attract clients and are thus covered in this report. Returns projection (trend &
comparative), scheme presentations, thematic schemes are few ways used by companies to
on-board new clients.

It also includes the classification of themes, the fees charged to the clients, ways of
representation of their respective schemes to attract clients.

Introduction

Portfolio management service is a financial service provided to the clients by the


fund manager where the fund manager designs a product to cater the investment
objectives and needs of the clients. The manager focuses on each category of
investor and their investment goals and time horizon. This product can be diversified
into different asset classes or it can even be aggressive by investing in a single type
of asset.

Minimum amount of investment in portfolio management services is Rs. 25 lakhs,


thus limiting it to the HNIs and Ultra HNIs. Prior to this the minimum investment
was Rs. 5 lakhs which was later revised by SEBI.

Gradually there has been an increase in number of fund managers leading to various
new ideas of investment style. These managers have created unique and different
types of PMS schemes which give better returns than the benchmark indices Nifty &
Sensex. PMS is 1 of the solutions where a client can get more returns and meet their
financial goals.
Rationale of the report

India is a country which is developing with gradual increase in number of HNIs and Ultra –
HNIs. These are the potential clients of every fund manager, thus knowing all the possible
top portfolio management service products will be an advantage as it will show us different
styles of investment by fund manager with huge AUM.

The survey & report is made to understand the types of schemes, their fee structure, the way
managers provide help to their relationship management team and most importantly the
points that attract the clients to purchase their products. All these points are covered so that
the team at Anand Rathi can analyse the best options and increase their market share.

Objectives

2. To know and understand the diversified schemes and their most unique selling points which
make them different and successful.

individuals(HNI) to create wealth. An investor can choose either of the two services offered:

1. Discretionary – where the fund manager has the authority and can take recommended
decisions on behalf of the clients. Here, a client is not always bothered by the fund
manager before taking decisions, but the decisions are always inclined towards the
investment goals of clients.

2. Non-discretionary – where the fund manager provides advisory services and discusses
the decision to their clients before taking them and then gets those decisions
approved.

ABSTRACT:
The objective was to find the performance of the portfolio and compare it with the equivalent
benchmark, this portfolio is managed. There are 2 most used types of performance evaluation
methods viz. conventional and risk-adjusted. The risk-adjusted methods adjust returns taking
into account various risks. The most used methods are Sharps ratio, Jensen alpha, Treynor
ratio, Modiglani and miller, Treynor squared. Risk-adjusted methods are preferred over
conventional methods as it provides a better result.

ABSTRACT:
This paper gives idea of the methods of measuring performance. Conventional performance
measures, strongly influenced by the Capital Asset Pricing Model of Sharpe (1964) (CAPM
or Sharp model), were developed prior to 1990. In this paper some of the problems and
limitations associated with conventional methods are discussed. After that review of more
recent conditional performance evaluation techniques is done, which are designed to allow
for the expected risk and return that may vary over time, and thus overcoming one of the
measure shortcomings of the conventional methods.

Insights, The Review of Financial Studies, Volume 2, Issue 3, 1 July 1989, Pages 393–421

ABSTRACT:

This paper provides a model that offers insights about various measures of portfolio
performance. The model takes into account various shortcomings of these measures which
includes problem of identifying appropriate benchmark portfolio, the possibility of over-
estimating risk and trying to avoid total risk which affects the returns to the investors. The
paper states that these are not the serious problems faced in performance evaluation of the
portfolio.
Research

We had to eliminate the following companies as their client base was low compared to other
top companies. Their client base being low meant that these companies weren’t focusing
much on increasing their market share and were just managing money of their few HNI and
FII clients.

The companies which are eliminated:

1. QUANTUM ADVISORS PVT.LTD.


Number of clients – 13
Total Discretionary AUM – Rs. 17430.25 Cr
Average ticket size – Rs. 1227.47 Cr

2. KARMA CAPITAL ADVISORS PVT. LTD.

Research Design

Procedure:
Following is the procedure we followed to get the data and compile it so that a comparative
analysis can be done.

1. Read the legal document on PMS which was found in the SEBI website.
2. Extracted names of all the registered fund managers from the SEBI website.
3. Alphabetically, extracted the AUM of each fund manager registered under SEBI. This
st
data was found in their monthly report submitted to SEBI, dated as on 31 December,
2017.
4. All the following data was then compiled to an excel sheet:
Name of fund managers,
Their contact details,
Registered H.O
Investors per fund manager,
Average ticket size per investor,
AUM under discretionary PMS &
AUM under non-discretionary PMS
5. Selected the parameter: Equity – listed, under the guidance of my mentor (fund
manager) as we wanted to focus on this parameter.
6. Filtered and sorted the data on the basis of the parameter and selected the top PMS
houses.
7. We had to eliminate a few top PMS houses as their investors were less and by this we
could reason out that they are just focusing on these selective clients and are not much
keen on increasing their market share.
8. After shortlisting the top PMS houses:
a. We went through their websites to gather disclosure documents, presentations and
any other fact sheets provided by them related to PMS and PMS schemes.
b. Made an excel file to input all the PMS schemes of all top PMS houses. This file
includes:
Name of company
Name of schemes
Investment objectives
Investment strategy
Number of stocks per scheme
Market capitalization
Theme (if any)
Investment horizon
Benchmark (like Nifty 50, CNX index etc.)
Fees – AMC, upfront, brokerage, others.
c. Made a questionnaire which was used while contacting the top PMS houses to do
primary survey. This survey helped us to gather the undisclosed information.
9. Studied the schemes of top PMS houses and selected the unique and differentiating
schemes.
10. After selecting the unique schemes, I made recommendations based on those
schemes.

Responses

The responses to the above questionnaire is limited to few select companies which are
not necessarily of top 10 as connecting with all these companies and their fund
managers was not happening that easily.
Some fund managers and their team took interest in this questionnaire thus leading to the
answers of the questions in regards to their own company.
Few selective questions by selective companies remained unanswered as they felt it
would lead breach of the confidential data and even I could not push them on providing
the data.

There are 2 banks as well in the survey to understand in what way rest of the PMS
products are being presented, pushed and sold to increase their AUM. This gives a small
idea on how collaborating with banks can also increase the AUM of fund managers.

Data from primary sources: Below are the answers to the above questionnaire.

Classification of PMS schemes on the basis of investment strategy

After going through all the PMS schemes we found out that the strategy of investing is
divided in two:

1. Generic method of investing – This method includes all the mainstream ways of
investing in to the market.
2. Thematic method of investing – This method includes an unique way of investing
which is different from the rest. These invest in selective themes.

Generic method Thematic method


Small cap Banking and financial services
Mid cap Infrastructure
Large cap Pharmacy sector
Multi cap Rural sector of India

Overall Revenue Model

We found out that the PMS houses pay either of the two following commission type to push
their PMS schemes in front of their potential clients.

1. Upfront basis: This is the type of commission paid in one go. If a salesperson is given
upfront commission then he/she may not get commission on the same for next 3
years. E.g.: 5% commission paid just after selling the PMS scheme and no
commission will be given for next 3 years on the same sales.
2. Trail basis: This is the type of commission paid to the salesperson on a yearly basis.
Here the salesperson gets paid yearly till the client holds his money in the scheme.
E.g.: 1.5% commission paid yearly till the client is with that company.

A salesperson and the fund manager mutually decide on the selection of commission type, it
is flexible but also depends on the fees charged to the clients by the same salesperson. If the
salesperson can pitch for an upfront fee then he is eligible for the upfront commission as well.
PMS Scheme Representation For The Investors
These are some snapshots taken from the presentations and reports from few of the
companies. Reasons for taking snapshots-

1. Get the graphical ideas which are catchy to the clients


2. The way of presenting and marketing the PMS product
3. Possible ways to grab potential clients attention and get them onboard

Recommendations

After going through all the top PMS schemes in the industry and looking at the current
market scenario these are the few recommendations I would like to suggest to the company
Anand Rathi:

1. Digital marketing: One of the most preferred marketing type used in current time.
While surveying and even on a daily basis I could find ads of companies like Motilal
Oswal, Sharekhan, HDFC, etc on social media, which helps them to promote
themselves and their products. This is cost effective and reaches a wide number of
potential clients. Like putting up ads in LinkedIn, Moneycontrol, websites of Demat
companies where they themselves don’t sell their own PMS product.

2. Co-branding: To tie up with companies who can market our PMS schemes and sell
them to the potential clients. This also increases brand equity of the companies. These
companies will help to increase our market share and even if they are unable to sell at
least this will increase awareness amongst the investors. This awareness can lead to
new clients by word of mouth.

3. Check digital footprint: At times the competitors post negative reviews on the
internet to degrade the reputation of that company. So one should keep checking if
there are bad reviews or comments on the internet and counter them with facts and
correct data.

4. Come up with special situations funds: This can include


- Investing in businesses with strong entry barriers
- Investing in businesses which underperforming or undervalued.
- Banking sector, because currently it is facing a lot of issues which has devalued
their market share, but over a period of time this will recover and growth is going to
happen for sure.

5. Create a Hybrid fund: As the current market is volatile and the upcoming scenarios
are going to keep the market this way, it is better to come up with a fund which
includes one part of the fund invested in debt market and rest to be invested in the
undervalued stocks.

Learning Outcomes

Interning at Anand Rathi has been a great experience, where the interns were treated equally
compared to their employees, the working environment was good and there was much to
learn. Two months being a short duration did not create a limitation in learning. Following
are the things that I have learned and improved -

1. Data collection: During the internship there was a lot of data collection involved as
we had to get the information on the PMS industry; all fund managers, the top PMS
houses and their schemes. I have never before worked with so much of data, this over
a period of time taught me on how to get data fast and how to manage data in excel
files.
2. Inter-personal skills: As I had to market the company’s PMS scheme internally, it
helped me to improve the way I communicated and responded to the questions asked
by them. While talking to ROs, branch managers etc., one has to be careful, so I
learned on how to talk and convey my message to them properly with less usage of
time and words.
3. Themes: Learned about regular and new ways of PMS schemes and how they were
created. This included learning the themes of schemes and how well they were
diversified. There are themes like – rural, financial, manufacturing, etc, currently in
the market and there are chances of more new themes coming in the market.
4. Handling people: While handling the logistics department, I learned how to handle
people who do odd jobs. There was an office boy and peon provided to me to dispatch
the booklets, so it was tough to explain and get them work but it was done in 2 days,
which is less than expected.
5. Voice-over narration: Recording for presentation videos was tough and took a lot of
re-dos. All this helped me to find different ways of recording and making the audio
clear and audible. It helped me by increasing my patience level, reduced my hesitation
and developed confidence after finishing and getting approval of first video.
Contribution to the Organization

The duration of internship was mere 2 months, thus limiting my contribution towards the
organization. But still there was partial contribution from my side:

 Gathering data of: total registered fund managers in India; AUM of each fund
manager; industry size of PMS; top PMS houses and all of their schemes; filtering all
the schemes to unique schemes. The managers will use all this data to check where
they are lacking and the areas that can be improved instantly. They will take ideas
from the unique thematic PMS schemes to design their new schemes.
 Did a voice over narration for a presentation video on 1 of the latest PMS scheme
(MNC PMS) introduced by AnandRathi’s fund managers. This video will be
presented in front of the clients in all seminars, conferences and will be used by the
sales team while pitching for the MNC PMS scheme. This video has been circulated
from top to bottom levels of management.
 Internal marketing: As I was interning at the Head Office, all the information had to
be circulated from here to rest of the branches. I was given a task to promote their
internal PMS scheme and had to make calls to the regional offices, dealers and
franchisee holders.
 Logistics: Handled the logistics department of fund managers where they had to
convert their presentation into booklets and then dispatch it all over India. Here I had
to apportion and circulate all the booklets across India to the ROs, franchisee holders,
dealers and other branches, as per their requirement.
Conclusion

As 65% of the population is below 35 years of age, this shows that there is a lot of
potential in this industry to grow. Gradually there will be an increase in HNIs and
ultra HNIs which will lead to more investment in this industry. Fund managers are
continuously focusing on innovation in schemes and also on reducing their cost so that
the overall revenue increases. The whole industry can grow at a large scale but will
take a few years as there is lack of awareness and even the percent of HNIs will
increase by then.
