In addition to the 1996 mutual fund legislation, SEBI has released several guidelines to safeguard investor\u2019s interests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Association of Mutual Funds in India (AMFI) is a statutory entity that oversees asset management companies, in addition to SEBI, publishes a code of conduct for participating entities and handles investor complaints.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-modes-to-hold-mutual-fund-units\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Modes_to_Hold_Mutual_Fund_Units\"><\/span>Modes to Hold Mutual Fund Units<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"739\" src=\"https:\/\/cms-resources.pocketful.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Modes-to-Hold-Mutual-Fund-Units.jpg\" alt=\"Modes to Hold Mutual Fund Units\" class=\"wp-image-9701\" style=\"width:280px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cms-resources.pocketful.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Modes-to-Hold-Mutual-Fund-Units-1024x739.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cms-resources.pocketful.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Modes-to-Hold-Mutual-Fund-Units-300x216.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cms-resources.pocketful.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Modes-to-Hold-Mutual-Fund-Units-768x554.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cms-resources.pocketful.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Modes-to-Hold-Mutual-Fund-Units-150x108.jpg 150w, https:\/\/cms-resources.pocketful.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Modes-to-Hold-Mutual-Fund-Units.jpg 1497w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Investment in mutual funds can be held in two different modes:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\" id=\"h-soa-mode\">SOA Mode<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The Statement of Accounts, or SOA, is the conventional way to hold mutual fund units. With this approach, the units are kept in a statement form that the asset management business issues periodically. The statement includes information on the folio number, transaction history, and other details. SOA is mailed to the registered address of the investor and is useful for those who prefer physical records.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\" id=\"h-demat-mode\">Demat Mode<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>An investor must have a Demat account with a depository participant, such as NSDL or CDSL, to hold mutual fund units in demat form. Mutual fund units are stored electronically in a single demat account, much like your other investments, like equities and bonds. This enables investors to track all of their assets in one location.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Read Also: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pocketful.in\/blog\/what-mutual-fund-fact-sheet\/\">Mutual Fund Factsheet: Definition And Importance<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-difference-between-soa-and-demat-mode\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Difference_Between_SOA_and_Demat_Mode\"><\/span>Difference Between SOA and Demat Mode<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table has-small-font-size\"><table><thead><tr><th class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Particular<\/th><th class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">SOA<\/th><th class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Demat<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Mode of Holdings<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Mutual fund units are kept in statement form.<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Mutual fund units are held in electronic form in a demat account.<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Accessibility<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Under this method of holding, investors must interact with AMC or Registrar.<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Investors are required to deal with a broker.<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Fees<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">No additional charges apply for holding units of mutual funds in SOA form.<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">AMC is required to be paid along with transaction charges, brokerage, etc.<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Transaction Mode<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">The transaction orders of mutual funds units can be placed directly with AMC through an online platform and physical forms.<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Transaction orders can only be placed through online platforms.<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Nominations<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Transfer of units involves a lengthy and separate process for each AMC.<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">The method of nomination and transfer is easy and can be managed through a demat account.<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-event-related-to-risks-in-mutual-fund-investment\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Event-related_to_Risks_in_Mutual_Fund_Investment\"><\/span>Event-related to Risks in Mutual Fund Investment<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/cms-resources.pocketful.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Risks-in-Mutual-Fund-Investment.png\" alt=\"Risks in Mutual Fund Investment\" class=\"wp-image-9703\" style=\"width:234px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cms-resources.pocketful.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Risks-in-Mutual-Fund-Investment-1024x1024.png 1024w, https:\/\/cms-resources.pocketful.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Risks-in-Mutual-Fund-Investment-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/cms-resources.pocketful.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Risks-in-Mutual-Fund-Investment-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/cms-resources.pocketful.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Risks-in-Mutual-Fund-Investment-768x768.png 768w, https:\/\/cms-resources.pocketful.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Risks-in-Mutual-Fund-Investment-1536x1536.png 1536w, https:\/\/cms-resources.pocketful.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Risks-in-Mutual-Fund-Investment-96x96.png 96w, https:\/\/cms-resources.pocketful.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Risks-in-Mutual-Fund-Investment.png 2000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>An investor filed a complaint against a famous broker, claiming that the broker had not <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pocketful.in\/mutual-funds\">invested in a mutual fund<\/a> even though it had deducted money from his account.
