How much commission do you pay?iThis chart assumes a 1% annual trail commission on the total portfolio value — a common rate in the industry. Over a 10-year horizon with ₹50L starting corpus and ₹12L added each year, this compounds to a significant sum.

This is not about discouraging distributor relationships — it's about helping you understand the value behind what you pay, so you can have confident, informed conversations with your advisor about the quality of advice you receive in return.

— The Conflict of Interest

"Free" advice is quietly costing you lakhs.

Under a ₹50L corpus, most people can't access unbiased advice — banks and distributors only make it "free" because they earn commission from what they sell you.

Problem 01

"Free" Advice Isn't Free

Most advisors in India earn 1–1.5% annual trail commission from the products they recommend — funded silently through your fund's expense ratio. You never see this charge, but it compounds against you every year.

Hidden Cost
Problem 02

They're Selling, Not Advising

Bank RMs and mutual fund distributors operate under product-sales pressure. ULIPs, high-margin insurance plans, and regular-plan funds pay them more — so that's what they recommend, regardless of what's right for you.

Product Pressure
Problem 03

No Legal Duty to You

As agents of the product manufacturer, bank RMs and distributors have zero legal obligation to act in your best financial interest. A SEBI RIA does — by law.

— What Is A SEBI RIA

Your family's Chief Investment Officer — for a flat fee.

Unlike any other advisor, a SEBI Registered Investment Adviser is legally bound to act as your fiduciary — always and only in your best interest.

⚖️
SEBI Legal Mandate RIAs cannot earn any commission from any financial product. Their only income is the transparent fee you pay them directly — by regulation, not by promise.

Zero Commission, Ever

Prohibited by SEBI from holding an ARN (distributor code). Cannot earn trail commission from any fund house.

Fiduciary Standard by Law

All advice must be based on your risk profile, goals, and financial situation — not product profitability.

Transparent Fee

Flat subscription fee paid annually. You know exactly what you pay — and exactly what you get.

SEBI Regulated & Verified

Audited and inspected by SEBI. Verify any advisor's registration directly at sebi.gov.in.

— Bank RM vs DIY vs Foliyo Gold

Who is your money really working for?

Three ways to invest a sub-₹50L portfolio — and what each one actually costs you.

Bank RM / Distributor Do-It-Yourself Foliyo Gold SEBI RIA
How are they paid? Commission from product manufacturers No advisor — you pay nothing, get nothing Flat ₹9,999/yr fee — nothing else
Fiduciary duty? None. They are product sales agents N/A — no one is accountable but you Legally mandated by SEBI
Goal-based allocation? Rarely — pushed toward whatever pays more Only if you build and maintain it yourself Built around your goals, horizon & risk
Ongoing rebalancing? Not proactive — you're often on your own Requires your own time & market tracking Continuously monitored and rebalanced for you
Regulator? AMFI (self-regulatory, lighter touch) None SEBI — same as stock exchanges
Conflict of interest? Structural — higher commission = push that product None, but no expert check on your decisions either None — income independent of recommendations
— Our Investment Philosophy

Superior risk-adjusted returns.

As investment advisers, we aim to recommend assets and funds where the risk-return trade-off favours superior returns — buying quality with a margin of safety, rather than chasing whatever is hot.

Value Time Intrinsic Value Overvalued Undervalued Margin of Safety

Illustrative concept only, for explanation purposes — not a chart of actual or projected fund performance, and not a promise or guarantee of returns.

— Our Research Process

The kind of research usually reserved for private banks.

Every recommendation your RIA makes is backed by two layers of continuous research — one on where markets are headed, one on which funds deserve your money.

🌍 Macro Research

Macro & Market Research

We track economic cycles, rate cycles and market regime shifts continuously — research depth benchmarked against what large global institutions run in-house.

📊 Quant Screening

Quantitative Fund Screening

A proprietary algorithm ranks funds on rolling returns, risk-adjusted ratios, and up-capture / down-capture behaviour in rising and falling markets.

🔍 Qualitative Diligence

Qualitative Fund Diligence

Fund manager interviews to understand their philosophy, process and consistency — because numbers alone don't tell the whole story.

— Foliyo Gold Plan: What's Included

The four-step plan, in six moving parts.

Everything your RIA does for you, from the first conversation onward.

01

Financial Plan

Built on your income, expenses and goals — house, education, retirement.

02

Portfolio Review

We review your existing investments to flag what's underperforming or costing you in commissions, and advise how to restructure.

03

Asset Allocation

Your investment is split across equity, debt, gold, international and liquid — e.g. a ₹1L SIP as 70% equity / 20% debt / 10% gold & international — with specific funds recommended for each slice.

04

Execution Support

Our team helps you invest via Groww, Zerodha, or whichever app you prefer.

05

Ongoing Rebalancing

We track markets continuously and proactively rebalance — e.g. raising your equity allocation from 70% to 80% if conditions turn favourable.

06

Annual Review

A 45-minute meeting with your RIA each year to revisit goals, portfolio performance and life changes.

— Common Questions

Everything you want to know.

What exactly is included in the Foliyo Gold Plan?
A personalized financial plan built around your goals, a review of your existing investments, a full asset allocation and fund selection across equity, debt, gold and international funds, hands-on execution support on the app of your choice, ongoing monitoring and rebalancing, and a formal annual review with your RIA.
Is ₹9,999/year really all I pay — no hidden fees?
Yes. ₹9,999 + 18% GST (about ₹11,799 all-in) per year is the entire cost. Your RIA earns no commission from any fund, product, or platform — their only income is the fee you pay directly.
Is this suitable if my portfolio is under ₹50 Lakhs?
Yes — it's designed specifically for this segment. Most fee-only RIAs in India focus on larger AUM-based mandates; the Gold Plan brings the same institutional-grade advisory process to smaller, growing portfolios at a flat, affordable fee.
Who actually manages my money — Foliyo or a human advisor?
A SEBI-registered Investment Adviser from Foliyo's vetted network works with you directly. Foliyo is the technology platform that matches you to the right RIA and supports the relationship — we are not a SEBI RIA ourselves and do not provide investment advice.
How is this different from just buying direct mutual funds myself?
You can buy direct funds yourself, but you're on your own for goal-based allocation, fund selection, tax-aware structuring, and knowing when and how to rebalance. The Gold Plan gives you a qualified RIA who does this analysis for you, continuously — for a fixed fee far below a traditional PMS or wealth management mandate.
What happens after I sign up?
You sign a digital, SEBI-mandated advisory agreement and pay the fee. Over the next 10 days you'll have two short calls to share your financial details, followed by a 45-minute planning session covering allocation, fund selection and tax strategy. Your RIA then supports execution and monitors your portfolio going forward.
