Should you invest in Mutual Funds through Whatsapp in India?


Whatsapp is popular social app which is available on most of our mobile phones. Mutual Fund services provided by CAMS are really amazing. You can invest in direct mutual funds through their mobile App itself. Investing through Whatsapp in mutual funds could be an add-on feature which one can utilize. ABSL, Motilal Oswal and Wishfin offers limited services. I would advise that, just because someone is offering services through Whatsapp, you should not invest in mutual funds. Investing in mutual funds is a disciplined financial planning approach to achieve a financial goal. We don’t do this like booking a movie ticket every week. Investing in mutual funds takes a few minutes if you use CAMS App or any other mutual fund platform like Fundsindia or icicidirect. You should use Whatsapp services as additional features.
