Screening educative films & panel discussions

A series of important films and documentaries that have serious investigative and educative content remain unknown to most people because there is no forum to publicise and share them. Moneylife has made a beginning in this direction and with support,would like to do a lot more.  We screened Brokering News in twice in Mumbai and once in Pune and helped publicise it in a big way on social media.

Why MLF?Because the Financial Services Businesses Fail to Serve

D Swarup Committee report: investor population was just over 8 million by 2009 (including mutual fund investors). It has declined from 12 mn in 1999 (NCAER) and 20 mm in early 1990s. Most people, feel let down insurance companies, stockbrokers and mutual funds, prefer to keep their money in the bank, buy gold and real estate

Investor population is Falling People are putting money mainly in banks

Mis-selling & Mis-buying• Insurers, Mutual Funds and

their agents are focussed only on sales &commissions

• Bankers have turned into banksters

• Savers have to constantly be on the guard and educate themselves

• They need the right education and support

• Moneylife is fulfilling this vital role

““There is mis-buying due to lack of authentic unbiased information which is exactly why Moneylife is priceless. If you read Moneylife the chances of getting fooled will reduce very very rapidly.SUKETU SHAH
