Quantum Mutual Fund: Now at home in Chennai

Opens its first offline business office in Mylapore

Mumbai, October 12th, 2011: Quantum Mutual Fund, India's first and only direct-to-investor mutual fund company has recently opened doors to Chennai with its first offline business in Mylapore.

Since its inception in 2006, Quantum Mutual Fund has continually worked for the interests of its investors - for a transparent system to launching simple products to offering the only paperless invest online platform for mutual fund investing. With a base of over 18,000 investors, Quantum has created a small, nevertheless, loyal niche for itself in an otherwise cluttered industry.

When something as traditional as investing is tied to technology, it becomes imperative to support technology with an offline face as well. So, while Quantum Mutual Fund has a robust online platform for investing, their new business office is a step towards providing investors with a real world feel of investing with Quantum.

"Investing is all about making someone feel comfortable enough to entrust his savings to your care. And while, the online world makes investing convenient and easy, in reality, there are still some non-net users who prefer the good old feel of the offline world. At Quantum, we have a mix of both offline and online investors. For our online investors, we have recently launched the country's only paperless invest online platform for mutual funds. And now for our offline investors, we are coming home to Chennai," said Jimmy A Patel, Chief Executive Officer, Quantum Asset Management Company Pvt. Ltd.

Though Quantum Mutual Fund is based out of Mumbai, its investor base in South India, especially Chennai, has given the fund house enough reason to set up its first business office in the city. The office in Regus Citi Centre might seem like a humble setting, however, investors can be assured of all services expected from a fully functional Official Point of Transaction Acceptance.

The Indian investor today is aware of the benefits of investing but is rightly cautious of the risks of the stock markets. And hence, the mutual fund industry as an investment manager of an investor's savings has reason to be optimistic, provided that the interests of the investor are never compromised on.
