“We at DSP are always looking for simplicity in all our offerings of products as well as services to our investors. The new symbols will help investors more conveniently identify the underlying investment or index and select the relevant ETFs. In our view the same would be simple and action oriented for the investor,” said Anil Ghelani, CFA, Head – Passive Investments and Products, DSP Mutual Fund.“Over the past many years as we have launched multiple ETFs across market cap and asset classes, the ticker code or symbols appear different and can at times become a bit confusing to understand the underlying index that the ETF is tracking. Hence, we feel there was a need to simplify our existing symbols,” said Gurjeet Singh Kalra, Business Head – Passive Funds, DSP Mutual Fund.
