Think Equity. Think Motilal Oswal.


 Equity markets have delivered steller returns in the past 6 months. If you see the inflows into equity mutual funds, direct equity investing  as well as IPOs, there is currently a lot of interest among investors for equity as an asset class. However given low penetration, there is low understanding around equity investing.

Today, Mass Affluent investors are looking for avenues to create wealth. While they may have invested in various asset classes ( fixed deposits, gold, real estate, fixed income funds), they realise that equity is probably the best asset class to create wealth over the long term.  They want to take advantage of the current favourable investing climate and invest in equity- either through equity mutual funds or through direct stock investing. However, they also realise that equity investing requires special expertise. It is complex, requires regular monitoring , knowledge to pick winners and the discipline to stick with them. Lack of these qualities is what makes equity investing risky. To take advantage of the investing opportunity and mitigate its risks, they are looking at equity investing experts

In a category with low penetration, it is awareness and consideration that builds brand trial. To create consideration , Motilal Oswal has created a campaign positioning itself as the equity investing expert. 

Drive by Motilal Oswal tower at night and it will be lit green or red depending on how the stock markets have performed that day. Instead of  ‘Up-Down’ buttons our elevators have visuals of Bulls and Bears.  We have one of the largest equity research departments in the industry and a unique equity investing process(QGLP) . All the money of the company and promoters is invested only in equity . As an investment house we think, breathe and live  equity . Needless to say; we are an ‘equity focused’ investing house !

To celebrate this  focus on equity , we have rolled out our latest brand campaign positioning  MOFSL as an equity investing expert.

The campaign idea is simple – if you are thinking about investing in equity , think about Motilal Oswal. Because we have been focusing on only equity for 30 years and have mastered it .


The idea of  the campaign is to; well; focus on this focus! And hence present Motilal Oswal as the equity expert you should think of if you are thinking about investing in equity.
