In short

At the Business Standard BFSI Insight Summit 2026, experts said investor education should explain why it is hard to beat market benchmarks all the time.

They said the message should go beyond costs and tracking error. The report does not say whether any rules or programs will change.

What the reporting says

At the Business Standard BFSI Insight Summit 2026, panellists said investor education must explain why beating market benchmarks consistently is difficult. The summary says they wanted education to go beyond costs and tracking error, but it does not name any fund, regulator or product. The immediate consequence is a call for clearer guidance to investors, while no policy change is reported.

Why it matters

At the Business Standard BFSI Insight Summit 2026, panellists said investor education should explain why consistently beating market benchmarks is difficult. The summary says this should go beyond costs and tracking error. The reporting does not identify any specific fund house, regulator action or new programme, so the effect is limited to a policy suggestion.
