What Nippon Life India Asset Management does

Indian mutual fund manager (formerly Reliance Mutual Fund), majority-owned by Japan's Nippon Life Insurance.

Earns an annual fee on the assets in its funds, higher on equity schemes than debt ones, so revenue follows market levels and the monthly flows of retail investors who buy through SIPs, systematic investment plans of fixed monthly purchases. Distribution runs through banks, brokers and independent advisers. Nippon Life of Japan is the majority owner.

In one line: India's smaller asset manager under Japanese ownership.
