Portfolio Management

Portfolio Management Services

Gone are the days when an investor could directly participate in the capital
markets, for they have not only become far more complex in terms of
compliances, methodologies, effects and analysis but also need a constant
tracking mechanism. As is the case globally, the Indian investor has also
realized the advantages of seeking professional advice in order to not only
manage but also augment his portfolio.

We at Unicon in our constant endeavor to bring to our esteemed clients


global methodology have developed a proprietary model that has enabled us
to outperform all major indices with a fair degree of consistency, over the
longer term. We continue to be positive of both our approach and the Indian
capital markets in general and especially so after UPAs landslide mandate
to guide the country over the next 5 years. However, we believe that the out-
performance is more stock-specific and the major indices only provide a
barometer for evaluation.

This view is expected to only be enhanced going forward, with larger


players entering the markets with globally fine-tuned analytical tools.
