Introduction to KRA
Overview
The Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) mandates a standardized KYC process for mutual fund investors, facilitated by KYC Registration Agencies (KRAs)
Did you know
KRAs store and manage KYC data on behalf of SEBI-approved intermediaries, such as mutual funds, streamlining the process by centralizing investor information. This ensures that investors do not need to repeat KYC verification when interacting with different intermediaries.
