EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
This project has been a great learning experience for me; at the same time, it gave me enough
scope to implement my analytical ability. This project as a whole can be divided into two parts:
The first part gives an insight about the mutual funds and its various aspects. It is purely based
on whatever I learned at Birla Sun Life Mutual Fund. One can have a brief knowledge about
mutual funds and all its basics through the project. Other than that the real servings come when
one moves ahead. Some of the most interesting questions regarding mutual funds have been
covered. Some of them are: Why has it become one of the largest financial intermediaries? How
investors do chose between funds? Most popular stocks among fund managers, most lucrative
sectors for fund managers, a special report on Systematic Investment Plan, does fund
performance persists and the topping of all the servings in the form of portfolio analysis tool and
its application.
All the topics have been covered in a very systematic way. The language has been kept simple so
that even a layman could understand. All the data have been well analyzed with the help of
charts and graphs.
The second part consists of data and their analysis, collected through a survey done on 60 people.
It covers the topic´ need of financial advisors for mutual fund investors´. The data collected has
been well organized and presented. Hope the research findings and conclusions will be of use. It
has also covered why people don’t want to go for financial advisors? The advisors can take
further steps to approach more and more people and indulge them for taking their advices.
