India-Specialist edge

Having an on-the-ground domestic investment team in India gives us a clear advantage over other India managers based abroad in understanding the nuanced landscape of such a large and diverse country and helps us in being able to separate the signal from the noise.

Quality-bias

Our portfolio is constructed with high quality companies. We do not chase temporary trends and do not deviate from our core investment strategy.

Long-term focus

We channel our energy in identifying great businesses that also have a long growth runway in front of them, gradually building positions in them and then sitting patiently on them for very long periods of time

Our Heritage

Unit Trust of India (UTI) was created in 1964 through an act of Parliament by the Government of India. As the country grew, UTI flourished in its pioneering role in the development of Capital Markets and Unit Trusts. With time the sector liberalized and private sector participants recognized the opportunity in the Mutual fund business. Eventually in 2003, following a restructuring, UTI Asset Management Company  was carved out of the erstwhile Unit Trust of India , and commenced operations as a SEBI registered Mutual Fund. The ownership of the firm was split equally between the four largest state-owned financial institutions i.e. Life Insurance Corporation, State Bank of India, Bank of Baroda and Punjab National Bank. T. Rowe Price, a U.S. based money manager, has been the firm’s single largest shareholder since 2010 and holds a 23% stake.

Our scale, reach and heritage have made UTI a leading financial brand in India. It is a matter of great pride and responsibility for our firm since customers are central to everything we do. We continually invest in our people and technology in order to maintain an edge in our investment expertise and deliver superior returns. Our unparalleled local knowledge of Indian business and institutionalized investment process make us the ideal partner for your investment into India.
