Mumbai: Kotak Mutual Fund has launched a new campaign ‘Sapno Ko Skip Nahi SIP Karo’ that aims to build an emotional connection and encourages long-term investments. The message is that users can achieve their dreams by investing through SIPs (Systematic Investment Plans). Today, we have more than 8 crore active SIPs, a testament to their growing popularity. However, when the company delved deeper, it found that many people stop their SIPs prematurely due to market fluctuations. This often happens because their investment decisions are driven by short-term profit goals rather than an emotional connection.
The company explains that in conversations with people, it discovered that many juggle multiple dreams—owning a car, a foreign trip, securing their child’s future, early retirement, or a new house. Unfortunately, due to financial constraints, some dreams get skipped. There’s also a significant number of potential investors hesitant to start SIPs, perceiving them as risky. Consider this: India has more than 25 crore automobile owners, yet only about 4.5 crore individuals invest in mutual funds.
With these insights, it has launched the campaign. The aim to help people invest more and stay invested longer, even convincing those on the fence to start investing for their dreams.
The campaign looks to transform the idea of investing for short-term profits into making emotional investments aimed at realising long-term dreams rather than skipping them.
Three films address different walks of life to make this message relatable. These films will be showcased across digital, TV, outdoor, and social media platforms.
Supporting this campaign is a dedicated microsite that empowers consumers with interactive calculators and information, helping them plan their dreams systematically.
