The platform will bring about simplification in mutual funds services and reduce turnaround times, while providing safe access. Leveraging the power of digital, MFCentral provides a unified gateway for friction-less services across all mutual funds”.

In addition to a single portfolio view, the platform strives for complete fungibility of physical and digital services. It offers investors the added convenience of generating reports on unclaimed payments and raising service requests for non-commercial transactions (Digital and Scan based), such as nominee change and address update

Speaking on the launch, Mr. Sreekanth Nadella, CEO, KFintech said, “The launch of MFCentral is a milestone moment in the Indian MF industry. At the heart of the platform lie four fundamental objectives – 1. Step change in ease of doing business for Investors, Intermediaries and AMCs 2. Lay foundation for a secure, resilient and hyperscale processing infrastructure to meet exponential growth expected in the MF industry 3. Construct an Info superhighway to provide best in class analytics to the Regulator, AMCs and ecosystem partners and 4. Rationalize redundancy in industry’s efforts and costs”

The platform is conceptualized to go live in three distinct phases, all of which are planned to go live by the end of this calendar year. The first phase, going live today, covers non-commercial transactions (service requests of investors), financial portfolio view, and consolidated account statement amongst other features. The next two phases will see the launch of a mobility platform, financial transactions, and integration with ecosystem partners for several value-added services.
