In the past 2 years, the stockbroking industry has seen the most opportunities and growth. It also has seen many old brokers winding their businesses up.
They could not compete with the discount brokers whose reach appealed more to the newcomers.
Lately, new Mutual Fund accounts and trading accounts grew by a huge margin, primarily driven by the millennial, tech-savvy investors, many existing brokers could not ride that wave. Lack of technology adoption was one of the major reasons for it.
But it will be unfair to say they did not understand the value of digitization. Most brokers we spoke to simply did not have the technical know-how to build these digital platforms, and they did not have access to a reliable IT partner who can build and run such solutions for them.
In other words, while they saw digitization as crucial, they did not want to divert into running IT verticals.
