FINDINGS AND ANALYSIS


It has been found out that the awareness level regarding mutual funds is too low. Public who are aware of mutual funds are not aware of Systematic Investment Plan which is a recent concept. There has been wrong perception in the mind of investors that mutual funds are complex ones and are directly related to share markets. If investors are given some awareness by conducting some awareness programs, many of them who do not invest presently would possibly like to invest in future.

Contd..
Most of the businessmen invest their money in business itself rather then investing in mutual funds. People consider Fixed and Bank deposits as a better and safer avenue for their investments. Young people these days are particularly more interested in mutual funds because they see mutual fund as safe bet. Also these people have large disposable incomes and risk taking capability too. Most of the businessman that were interviewed want to expand their business in recent years.

Recommendations
The most vital problem spotted is of ignorance. Investors should be made aware of the benefits. Nobody will invest until and unless he is fully aware and convinced.

There is a wrong perception among the investors regarding mutual funds , this should be rectified as soon as possible:-Most of the persons have wrong perception that the mutual funds are directly related to share market so this perception of the public have to be rectified. Banking channel should be focused more and more as it have a huge potential for Mutual Fund Industry:-The banking channel should be dealt more aggressively which can be a great source of income for Reliance Mutual Fund.
There is lot of complaint regarding the service of Reliance Mutual Fund industry so it should be dealt more seriously to make the investors happy:-Most of the public that were interviewed were very dissatisfied regarding the customer support service of Reliance..
