PMS FAQs

Portfolio Management Services (PMS) is a SEBI-registered personalized investment service where a professional manager handles your money, investing it in stocks or bonds based on your goals and risk level. It’s typically for investors with a higher amount to invest, with a minimum investment requirement of ₹50 lakh, offering more tailored strategies than mutual funds. SEBI ensures that PMS firms operate within regulatory frameworks to safeguard investor interests.
SEBI, or the Securities and Exchange Board of India, is the regulatory authority that oversees PMS firms, ensuring they follow rules to protect investors’ interests. It enforces compliance and transparency in the management of personalized investment services.
