Recently, Bharti AXA Investment Managers appointed Vikaas Sachdeva as the country head (business development). Sachdeva has over 16 years of experience in marketing and distribution of financial products in various companies. Sachdeva is upbeat about the scope of asset management in the country.
He feels India, as a country has a very high savings rate, despite recent trends towards higher consumption.
?As an industry, it will be our endeavour to tap into this pool of money available with individuals and non-individuals with a primary imperative of wealth creation,? he says. His success mantra is to stay clued to customer needs, he says. Having watched the private sector mutual funds market grow from its infancy, Sachdeva says, ?My endeavour would be to work with the highly driven and passionate team at Bharti AXA Investment Managers and build a respectable, aggressive and an innovative organisation with my past experience as inputs.?
With the market growing at a frenetic pace, Sachdeva is of the opinion that any organisation?in any sphere would need to keep its ears close to the ground to spot changing consumer preferences and subsequently launch products to tap the opportunities being thrown up.
