Are We Missing the Wood for the Trees?
The Jane Street case exposed how individual traders lost over ₹2.5 lac crore in last 4 years — largely to sophisticated prop trading firms.
Meanwhile:
• Total commissions paid to all MFDs across India = below 50 k crore (net of GST) in last 4 years. MFD’s investors has very positive outcome.
• In options trading, stock exchanges, regulators, and the government earned handsomely — all off the back of retail and individual investors.
Yet, the disproportionate scrutiny remains on:
• MFDs and Regular Plans
• Commission structures
• Alleged “mis-selling” and “conflict of interest.” “Agency Principal” humbug.
Why no questions on where the real losses are happening?
Why is there no regulatory or media focus on the massive wealth transfer via leveraged derivatives — often marketed as “easy money” for retail?
Is it because we’re too busy chasing headlines… and missing the wood for the tree?

@KirtanShahCFP Compulsory annuity returns are abysmal. Government should introduce equity allocation, just like they do in EPF or NPS.
Some compulsory pension is a blessing in old age. There is every chance of liquid money being exploited by children/ grandchildren in those years.
