👉 MFDs earn a small percentage as trail commission from the mutual fund company — there is no direct cost to the investor. This helps ensure continued service, guidance and relationship management.
? No hidden fees. MFDs earn trail commission transparently through the expense ratio of mutual fund schemes, which is regulated by SEBI and clearly disclosed.
? MFDs offer independent, need based recommendation without pushing bank-specific products. Their incentive is long-term client retention, not sales targets.
? Possibly, but without proper guidance, most investors make mistakes driven emotional decisions that harm long-term returns. Working with an MFD professional adds discipline and risk management to your investing journey.
