Abstract: Emerging trends and broad themes that drive the recovery of the Mutual Fund industry in general, and the asset management industry in particular, can help us understand the industry dynamics as it recovers from the peak of the COVID-19 pandemic. The chapter summarizes the experiences and lessons learned and proposes some potential trends that could emerge in the years to come in the mutual fund landscape. A descriptive research method is followed, and inputs are drawn from secondary sources. Asset class shift, digital investing, focus on fund management fee and costs, ESG and Passive funds, increased inter-regulatory co-ordination and industry consolidation, and allowing new entrants will be emerging trends. Findings and observations from this paper can help various mutual fund stakeholders – investors, fund managers, and Asset Management Companies (AMC)s, Mutual Fund Registrars, and the Regulators in better planning their activities and investments.
