Executive Summary Sector: BFSI
Equity as an asset class has outperformed other investments over a period of time due to earnings growth of
Corporates. Earnings of corporates increase on account of favorable demographics of India with young
population, high GDP growth, low inflation rate, Government reforms and investments, etc. Key indices have delivered
13% CAGR growth over last 10 years though Lehman Crisis in FY09 and Euro zone crisis impacted the returns
adversely in those respective periods. Market cap of stock exchanges ( BSE&NSE) grew at 12-13% CAGR (FY06-16)
along with uptick in average daily turnover as participants have increased in the equity markets. This was driven by
outperformance of equity over other asset classes such as Gold, Real estate investment, etc. The market
outperformance should continue to sustain the interests of the investors which bodes well for the broking industry.
We observe a significant shift of investments from Physical assets to Financial assets. With diversion of household
savings into financial assets, broking industry would be beneficiary as investors will require financial advisors to invest
through different modes as per their requirements.
For investing into financial assets, Investors prefer adopting mutual fund route as promoted by the regulator. MF
Industry’s AUM has more than doubled in the last 4 years from Rs.1.9trillion as on 31st March, 2014 to Rs.4.7 trillion
as on 31st Dec, 2016.
Regulators have taken various initiatives to improve accountability and transparency in order to safe guard the interests
of the small investors, which is likely to increase confidence and sustainability of the market participation.
Major beneficiary of all the above is the broking industry which has gone into consolidation phase as the pace of shut
down of small brokers have declined. Also, Top 25 members in NSE have gained market share which is visible from
FY14 onwards.
We recommend thematic investments in the broking industry and the players includes Motilal Oswal, Edelweiss, India
Infoline, etc.

Key index have given 13% CAGR growth over last 10 years though Lehman Crisis in FY09, Euro zone crisis, impacted
the returns in respective periods.
Lehman crisis created the financial meltdown all over the global markets and Indian markets were no exception.
However, with strong domestic consumption and steps taken by US govt, markets recovered strongly in FY10.
In FY16, Indian equity markets remained subdued due to turmoil in the global equity markets. Among the factors that
weighed down on the markets were the economic slowdown in China, Brexit crisis in the Eurozone, slump in global
commodity prices, weakening global trade and prospects of an interest rate hike by the Federal Reserve.

Markets regulator, SEBI, has spent Rs 7 cr on investor awareness programme in the 9MFY16. SEBI has conducted
nearly 6,300 programmes during 9MFY16. It had initiated 8,443 investor education activities in the last financial
year. To keep a check on unauthorized trades through investor accounts, trade alerts on SMS are sent by CDSL &
NSDL on the same day of the trade so that investor gets updated with the trades done during the day
The regulator conducts various investor education and financial programmes in the country, covering all states and
Union Territories. It intends to reach out to maximum people of target audience covering investors/ potential investors
of the country.
Our View: In the last few years, Indian Equity Markets witnessed extreme volatility which kept the retail investors at bay
and thus has witnessed lower participation from the small investors. However, initiatives are being taken by the
regulator, Stock Exchanges and intermediaries to improve accountability and transparency in order to safeguard the
interests of the small investors, which is likely to increase confidence and help the intermediaries to conquer the lost
battle. The brokerage industry is cyclic in nature and its fortunes are directly dependent on the performance of the
broader markets.

Brokers face the heat Sector: BFSI
In last 2-3 years, discount brokerage houses have made their presence felt in the industry. Few discount brokerage
houses have also decided to start offering margin funding services to their clients to deepen their client relationships.
With increase in client base of discount brokerage houses and other players entering the online broking
segment, online volume for the brokerage houses (as a % of overall retail volume) rose to 30% in FY16 from 27% in
FY15.
This has resulted in shutdown of various small brokers and sub brokers with fixed cost business model which were not
able to survive the transformational nature of the business.
Many of the brokers shut down in the period FY12-FY16; FY17 seems to be the consolidation phase for broking
industry.

Top brokers gaining market share Sector: BFSI
Top brokers are gaining market share with the help of various initiatives taking place such as upgrading
technology, increasing product portfolio, Supportive Research services, etc.
Research Services: Brokerage firms provides research services including equity research, economic research, sector
research and other research support services to their clients for sharing the information about the stocks. They advise
clients to make decision of their hard earned money as per their requirements or risk profile. Firms use analytical tools
for clients across portfolio planning, asset allocation and new idea generation. Online tools for advisors help develop
fund portfolios, automate multi-client trade allocation, rebalance portfolios and make performance reports, as well as
practice management skills for their assistance.
High Technology Usage: We are in a digital age where technology has been disrupting everything around our lives.
Thus top brokerage firms always been on the forefront for bringing in technological advancements for the betterment of
investors. Firms believe that technology has the power to transform the way to conduct financial transactions and
enhance the experience of retail investors through our robust digital platforms. Technology has enabled newer trading
strategies like algorithmic trading and high-frequency trading. These solution platforms allow high trading volumes with
minimal human intervention on daily basis.
Value added products: There are multiple trade delivery options across offline, online, desktop and mobile platforms.
Brokers have moved towards web/mobile platforms which offer online direct trading access, live news, advanced
strategies and charting, and ultra-fast execution. Some also allow data streaming from third parties on Mobile apps
and can use it for trading. Direct market access (DMA) is another area made possible with technology, by linking
institutional clients with exchanges directly, through the broker. Mobile apps and websites give real-time
Research, Analyst views, fund transfer, secure trading and monitoring to update the clients on real time basis.
Also, distribution of mutual fund products, life and general insurance policies and PMS services are being provided by
the brokerages.

Risk management: Risk management has become important post Freak trade by Emkay global which resulted in fall of
Nifty by 900 points in matter of 15 minutes. Different tools are used to control portfolio concentration limits and report
risk as per different categories. Also, tools are used to manage interest rate risk across currencies and warn clients on
margin limits. Higher volumes have intensified the need for processing and storing huge amounts of data daily. Firms
are also critical to provide safety in case of any eventuality.
Ethical practices and Regulations: The rules and regulations applicable to stock brokerages, besides being
statutory, play an important role in curbing aggressive risk taking and in enforcing discipline among clients. Various
factors like quality of audit, quality of disclosures, transparency of accounting policies, accounting policy followed for
derivative instruments and proprietary trading are utilized, for determining the adequacy of a brokerage’s accounting
quality standards.
Market shares of some of the largest brokerages are rising consistently as new technology along with stricter
compliance and regulatory requirements have pushed a large number of smaller entities out of business.
As per SEBI data, at the end of FY16 top 25 brokerages of the country accounted for a little more than 51% of the
total cash market turnover on BSE and NSE.
SEBI data further shows that the top 100 brokerages of India command almost 80% market share, which clearly
indicates that the smaller entities are losing their business and are moving out—a trend corroborated by the fall in the
number of registered brokers.
Small broking houses are surrendering their licenses and becoming franchisees of large brokerage houses. The reasons
for the same are huge investment needed in technology, offering innovative products, compliance cost, requirement
from customers for good products, advisory, etc.

It is observed that in the bull phase of the capital market (FY02-08), top 25 members have gained market share from
24% to 45%.
Post 2008, broking industry has not performed well due to external as well as internal factors as observed in earlier
slides such as flat IPO markets, negative growth in mutual fund sales, decline in average daily turnover, fall in Mcap to
GDP ratio, etc. This resulted in shutting shops of many broking firms
Now, Bull market theory seems to be working with improvement in IPO markets, increasing turnover. Thus, the brokers
who have passed the test of down turn are gaining market share.
Top 25 members of NSE are gaining market share which is visible from FY14 onwards (gain from 46% in FY14 to
51% in FY16). We , hence remain buoyant on broking industry.
