FUNDAMENTALLY STRONG
1 More than 40 registered asset management companies with a total AUM of around `40 lakh crore are in operation today
2 A dozen new firms are in queue to get Sebi’s nod to set up a mutual fund business
3 The mutual funds space is a tightly regulated and highly competitive segment
4 New entrants are eyeing a mix of active and passive schemes to gain market share
