Women Investor Participation in Mutual Funds Grows Faster Than Men: CAMS Data

New Delhi, May 19: Women investors are increasingly strengthening their presence in India’s mutual fund industry, with their share of assets under management (AUM) growing at a faster pace than that of male investors in CAMS-serviced schemes.

Recent data indicates a steady rise in women’s participation in mutual funds, reflecting greater financial awareness, independence, and long-term investment planning among female investors across the country.

The trend highlights a growing shift towards structured wealth creation, with more women opting for mutual funds as a preferred investment avenue supported by digital platforms and easier access to financial products.

Experts attribute this growth to factors such as rising workforce participation, improved income stability, and increasing awareness of disciplined investment tools like systematic investment plans (SIPs).

Analysts believe this momentum is likely to continue as more women actively engage in financial planning, contributing to broader growth in India’s mutual fund industry.
