Mutual funds in jupiter

General
1

I have observed that Jupiter asks for email access if I want to import my mutual funds from outside with the email. Why does it ask for email access? So, I have found out that Jupiter provides the mutual fund service by using AIAPL. What is AIAPL? So, does Jupiter not provide the mutual funds directly but does it with the help of AIAPL? While Groww is itself registered with SEBI for the mutual funds?

Importing of external mutual fund portfolio will need for your email address to get connected so that your portfolio information can be automatically captured. Other apps like IndMoney also follow this approach. This, to a certain extent ensures accuracy of the portfolio import

Dear @alec just to clarify some of your queries,

  • Email access is necessary in order to import your external fund to a platform.

  • Jupiter is just the brand name of Amica Financial Technologies Private Limited. And Jupiter directly offers mutual funds through AIAPL

  • If you look carefully you’ll find that, Groww is also registered under the name of “NextBillion Technology Private Limited”.

Groww also needs of your your email id to import external fund. Basically, the funds are imported using CAMS.

They need email I’d, and not the read access.

I get the following message.

Jupiter wants to access your Google Account

This is the standard privacy verbiage that is displayed that encourages you to check once before you proceed.

The access to your inbox is to look for the monthly portfolio performance report that comes in every month to update the portfolio performance

Ya,definetely that’s a better option. And this make me think that either jupiter money have bad intentions when they are asking for the read access to the mail or the developer of the Jupiter money don’t have the proper knowledge of cams or developers don’t gave proper sense of what is the customer privacy or the developer don’t want to increase their work and make the use of the cams and then user entering the email,developers might be thinking just like they take the sms access and then they full fill the otp requirements they would just take the email access full fill any otp requirements but they don’t understand that no one do personal chat on the sms but they might do on the email. Although I’m completely baffled on why would a company ask for the complete email viewing access. By the way it also seems to imply that I won’t be able to import the mutual funds if the email I’d that I have given don’t have Gmail then I won’t be able to import. And in the groww there is a option to add multiple emails.

I haven’t use the mutual fund feature in the jupiter app, as already start investing early somewhere else. Also I’m completely aware about any T&C and privacy policies.

Additionally, giving access to the gmail is standard practice to fetch necessary details.
