Who keeps a record of my mutual fund investments?
The mutual fund company or the asset management company that manages the mutual fund keeps a record of your mutual fund investments. When you invest in a mutual fund, you are allocated units based on the amount of your investment, and these units represent your ownership in the mutual fund. The mutual fund company keeps track of the number of units you own and the value of your investment, and they maintain a record of your transactions and account balances.
The mutual fund company will typically send you regular account statements, which provide details of your mutual fund investments, including the number of units you own, the value of your investment, any income earned, and any fees or expenses charged. You can also access your account information online or through mobile apps provided by the mutual fund company.
In addition, your investment in mutual funds is regulated by the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI), which mandates the mutual fund companies to maintain proper records of all transactions, including investor details, investment amount, units allotted, and fees charged.
In summary, the mutual fund company maintains a record of your mutual fund investments, and they provide you with regular account statements and online access to your account information. The regulatory authorities also ensure that proper records are maintained by the mutual fund companies to protect the interests of investors.
