MFCentral: The One-Stop Platform for Mutual Fund Investors in India
Mutual funds have become one of the most preferred investment options in India. But managing investments across multiple fund houses often involves navigating different portals, remembering multiple login credentials, and dealing with paperwork for transactions. Wouldn’t it be easier if there was a single platform to manage all mutual fund holdings?
That’s exactly what MFCentral offers!
At DhanLAP, we help investors leverage the full potential of their mutual fund holdings—whether it’s through smart investing or unlocking liquidity via Loan Against Mutual Funds (LAMF). Let’s dive into what MFCentral is, how it started, and why it’s a game-changer for Indian mutual fund investors.
What is MFCentral?
MFCentral is India’s second centralized online platform for mutual fund transactions, servicing, and consolidated portfolio tracking. It allows investors to view and manage all their mutual fund investments across different AMCs (Asset Management Companies) in one place—making it a single-window solution for mutual fund transactions.
The first one of a similar kind is MFU (Mutual Fund Utility), which has similar offerings to customers and intermediaries. MFU is managed by AMFI (Association of Mutual Funds of India).
Whether you want to check your holdings, initiate a transaction, raise a service request, or download statements, MFCentral simplifies the process without requiring multiple logins across different mutual fund websites.
How Did MFCentral Start?
MFCentral was launched in September 2021 as a joint initiative by:
- CAMS (Computer Age Management Services)
- KFintech (KFin Technologies Limited)
These two companies are India’s largest Registrar and Transfer Agents (RTAs), handling the majority of mutual fund transactions. The goal of MFCentral was to eliminate fragmentation in mutual fund servicing and create a seamless digital experience for investors.
The platform was developed under SEBI’s vision to promote digital transformation in mutual fund operations, ensuring transparency, efficiency, and better investor services.
