5. Lets See a Real-life Situation…
Kartik is the Sales Manager of XYZ Investments. His existing customer Mr.
Sunil (age 55) comes to him saying “I have Rs. 50,000 of idle cash which I
need it after 12 months. Can you please suggest a suitable investment
for me?”
Kartik says “Yes, Sir. You can invest in an Equity Mutual Fund of PQR
Fund, it will give you good returns.”
What is the Problem here?
1. Ethics – Mutual funds give higher sales commissions, hence Kartik
looked at his personal interest more than customers.
2. Suitability – Kartik did not verify Sunil’s risk profile / apetite, if he can
invest in an equity Mutual Fund or not.
3. Uncertainty – As mutual is subject to market risk, Sunil may end up
earning a lesser return than expected, may even end up losing a part
of his principal.
