In a recent ETMarkets webinar, Prateek Agrawal, Managing Director and CEO of Motilal Oswal Asset Management Company (MOAMC), discussed the evolving landscape of wealth creation in India. He underscored the significance of a growth-oriented investment strategy that prepares investors for market volatility. Agrawal highlighted MOAMC's unique position in the mutual fund industry, attributing its success to a philosophy rooted in the QGLP (Quality, Growth, Longevity, Price) framework. With assets under management exceeding ₹1.5 lakh crore (approximately $18 billion USD), the firm has a substantial portion of its capital invested alongside its clients, reinforcing accountability. Agrawal noted that while MOAMC's funds have outperformed benchmarks, such performance is accompanied by high volatility, advising investors to embrace this as part of their strategy. Looking forward, he expressed optimism about the mutual fund industry's growth, projecting it will exceed GDP growth as India's investor base expands. He encouraged young investors, especially Gen Z, to prioritize quality and compounding in their investment choices, reinforcing that true wealth accumulation comes from sustainable, organic growth.
