Wealth & asset management. Past performance is not a promise.

The screen has to say so without losing the investor.

Asset managers, wealth and portfolio managers, brokers, investment advisers and retirement providers, where every chart is a disclosure and every recommendation has a regulator behind it. We design onboarding, investing and advice journeys, compliant content and investor communication, and AI that helps advisers without advising for them.

What is shifting

The rulebook was rewritten, and the payment link got a badge.

Mutual funds moved to new regulations, investors can now check whom they are paying, and advisers answer for the AI tools they use. Each shift names what it demands, with a fact you can check.

  1. Mutual funds now run on a rewritten rulebook.

    It demandsFund pages, factsheets and campaigns rebuilt to the new regulations and their advertisement code.

    SignalThe SEBI (Mutual Funds) Regulations, 2026 came into force on 1 April 2026, replacing the 1996 regulations.

  2. Investors can now see whom they are paying.

    It demandsPayment steps that show the validated handle and explain what it means.

    SignalSince 1 October 2025, SEBI-registered intermediaries that collect investor funds must offer a validated UPI address on the “@valid” handle, marked by a thumbs-up icon.

  3. Advisers now answer for the AI they use.

    It demandsAI features with clear accountability, data controls and records an auditor can read.

    SignalA December 2024 amendment to SEBI’s adviser regulations makes an adviser using AI tools solely responsible for client data and for advice based on their output.

  4. Finfluencers lost their regulated partners.

    It demandsEducation and creator content that stays clear of advice and return claims.

    SignalSince August 2024, SEBI-regulated entities may not associate with unregistered persons who give advice or make return or performance claims.

The rulebook

Every chart is a disclosure, every nudge a recommendation.

SEBI’s mutual-fund, adviser and intermediary rules, its cyber framework, recurring payments and the data law, read for a typical programme. Your compliance team keeps sign-off.

    SEBI rules on unregistered finfluencers

    Regulated entities and their agents may not associate with unregistered persons who give advice or recommendations, or who make return or performance claims.

    We designCreator and education programmes are screened for advice and return claims before they run.

    RBI e-mandates for SIPs

    Recurring mutual-fund debits of up to ₹1 lakh can run by e-mandate without an extra authentication step, with a notice before each debit and an easy way to cancel.

    KYC, financial and nomination data collected per purpose with consent, withdrawal as easy as consent, and breach reporting to the Data Protection Board.

AI governance

Often shapes the work

  1. Securities and Exchange Board of India

    SEBI (Investment Advisers) Regulations, 2013

    Advice comes only from registered advisers; since 16 December 2024, an adviser who uses AI tools is solely responsible for client data and for advice based on their output.

Challenges

Where wealth & asset management loses customers and time.

What comes up first in most wealth & asset management conversations — outside, at the screen, and inside, in the operation.

Your customers

  1. Understanding the risk

    Risk, costs and past returns explained without burying the investor in disclaimers.

  2. Starting without friction

    KYC, nomination and the first SIP done in one sitting.

  3. Knowing whom to trust

    Registered names, validated payment handles and clear advice boundaries on every screen.

An adviser sits across a low table from a smiling couple who are reviewing papers on a sofa
Advice still happens across a table, and it has to be on the record.

Your operation

  1. Every asset is a disclosure

    Factsheets, ads and social posts must match the scheme documents and the advertisement code.

  2. Distribution through many hands

    Distributors, platforms and advisers each present the same fund differently.

  3. Cyber resilience under audit

    Investor-facing systems must meet SEBI’s cyber framework, with evidence to show.

What we build

The disciplines behind a typical wealth & asset management programme.

A typical programme here draws on each discipline in this mix. Every line names what it builds for the industry and links to the capability that does the work.

Work and insights

Case studies stay private until a client approves them.

No wealth & asset management client is named or described without written approval. Here is what we have written that bears on the industry.

A typical programme · composite

A mid-sized asset manager rebuilt its direct investing journey so an investor completes KYC, nomination and a first SIP in one sitting, with every chart and fund page generated from the scheme documents and checked against the advertisement code.

Anonymised and illustrative: the shape a programme takes, never a named client.

Questions

What product, distribution and compliance heads ask us first.

Something else on your mind? Ask us directly

Q.01Can you build our investing app?

Yes: onboarding, KYC, SIPs, goals and statements, integrated with your registrar, KYC agencies and payments, and built to SEBI’s cyber framework with the evidence your auditors ask for.

Q.02How do you keep content inside the advertisement code?

Fund content is generated from the scheme documents, and every asset is checked against the code — no testimonials, rankings or celebrities, the standard warning in full — before your compliance team signs it off.

Q.03Will AI give advice to our investors?

No. AI prepares, explains and checks; a registered adviser decides every recommendation, and SEBI’s rules make the adviser responsible for advice based on AI output.

Q.04Do you work with distributors and platforms as well as fund houses?

Yes: asset managers, distributors, wealth platforms, portfolio managers and advisers. Each gets journeys built to the rules of its own registration.
