Retirement Benefit Advisory & Fund Management
Darashaw Retirement Benefits Desk holds strong expertise in
Portfolio Management, Investment Advisory and Fund Management.
As Investment Advisors to a host of Retirement Benefit trusts,
our desk has helped these trusts achieve comprehensive credit
analysis and target higher returns. We work in a formal or
informal capacity with numerous retirement fund trusts, helping
them with an inter-sector and intra sector portfolio analysis of
the retirement funds and suggest strategies for Asset Liability
Management and Risk Management.
Backed by our excellent research department, our strength has
been in accurately identifying trends in the markets,
shortlisting mis-priced securities as well as single out unique
issue structures that cater to the Retirement Fund’s needs.
In a dynamic interest rate scenario and with the investment
pattern for Retirement Funds undergoing a sea change, this
service is being sought after by an increasing number of trusts.
Retirement Benefit Intermediation
We are the largest Retirement Fund intermediaries in the
country with an annual market share of around 23 - 25% and an
increasing market penetration year by year that has helped us to
hold on to our position. Retirement Benefit Intermediation is
one of our core competencies owing to our parent company's
strong broking presence in the fixed income securities market.
With the investment pattern changing very fast, Darashaw, today,
stands as one of the very few brokerage houses’ being able to
cater to all the needs of Retirement Funds with respect to the
various types of products they are mandated to invest in.
Retirement Benefit Consulting
We are currently consulting the state governments, civic
bodies (including municipal corporations), corporates, public
sector undertakings, banks, etc. on designing or re-engineering
Retirement Benefit schemes (mainly for pension schemes). In the
corporate sector we have aggressively helped corporates seek
exemption from the government-mandated scheme to provide higher
benefits to the employees and benefit from scientific portfolio
and investment management practice.
Our comprehensive suit of consultancy for the State
Governments, Municipal Corporations and other similar Public
Sector Organization has helped many to understand the critical
variables that effect their pension system as well as the ways &
means of controlling the liabilities and, on the other hand,
simulating the assetization strategies that can fund the pension
system liabilities over a long term.
Retirement Benefits Outsourcing / Administration
Recently, Darashaw has taken a controlling stake in TATA
Share Registry forming a new entity called TSR Darashaw. This
has been done to offer outsourcing solutions for payroll and
employees' trust funds administration and management solutions.
The trusted name of TATA Share brings to you outsourcing
services for Employee Benefits, which include Payroll
Processing, Retirement Schemes Management and Employee Stock
Options Plan Management. While the objective of outsourcing are
different for different firms ranging from superior delivery to
cost reduction, we along with TATA Share provide a wide choice
for outsourcing needs of the employers and benefit trusts.
All the above are various aspects of our Retirement Benefits
Desk which, together form a very strong force to reckon with in
the Indian Retirement Benefit Industry and give us the unique
advantage of being geared up to address and effectively solve
any kind of issues relating to Retirement Benefits faced by our
clients.
Darashaw has aggressively taken the front role in
liberalization of the investment pattern using the 'Force
Reckon' platform, which is also a capacity building platform for
the Retirement Fund Managers to upgrade their skills and
