These funds are a powerful combination of global investment expertise and cost-efficient passive strategies, suitable for both long-term investors and those just starting their financial journey. With our fully digital and zero commission platform, we are enabling users to invest with transparency, convenience and confidence.”

A JioBlackRock Asset Management spokesperson said, “We are delighted that our index fund NFOs are now available on Paytm Money, which aligns with our goal of expanding access to quality investment solutions across India. These funds offer investors a simple and low-cost way to participate in India’s growth.”

Index funds offer a simplified approach to investing by providing broad market exposure, eliminating the need to select individual securities. These funds are designed to track a benchmark index and aim to provide market returns at minimal cost.

Paytm Money offers a simple onboarding process, easy access to fund information and a completely digital investment journey, allowing investors to explore, evaluate and invest in NFOs right from their smartphone.

The platform allows retail investors to easily invest in top performing mutual funds, helping them develop disciplined financial habits with a low entry threshold. Backed by the combined expertise of BlackRock, the world’s largest asset manager, and Jio Financial Services, the funds aim to introduce global quality investment strategies to Indian investors.
