Aimed at helping distributors scale their business and focus on strengthening client relationships, JM Financial, the Industry first’s “Fixed Deposits Online” solution will provide both sub-broker assisted transaction as well as investor self-initiated transactions in Corporate Fixed Deposits from institutions of high repute and rating.

By combining technology and goals-based financial planning with personal advisory relationships, the solution will helps its distributors meet the needs of the more than 60% of investors who want a combination of digital capabilities as well as access to expert personal advice. The advantage of this platform is that the investor will continue to control the process, by way of authenticating or approving the transaction, without giving any Power of Attorney to debit their account.

Distributors empaneled with JM Financial Services will be able to offer the services to existing as well as new clients, with one time account opening and limited paper work. The platform will be integrated with the Central Know Your Customer Registry (CKYC) thereby eliminating the need for submission of KYC for every transaction.

Commenting on the development, Mr. Surajit Misra, Executive Director & Head, Independent Financial Distributor Group, JM Financial Services Ltd said “We constantly interact with our distributors to understand, what they need and based on their feedback, are pleased to launch this solution, that will allow them to not just provide choice of financial products to their end clients, but also deliver flexibility to place online transactions through a robust and scalable platform. We see this solution increasing efficiency and offering more time to them for relationship building and customer interactions”

The paper less corporate “Fixed Deposits Online” will be in addition to the IPO and Mutual Funds distributor platform offered presently by the firm. The solution will also allow the investors to have access to a consolidated view of all their investments in one place.
