Computer Age Management Services (CAMS) is the largest Mutual Fund Transfer Agency to the Indian Asset Management Companies with a share of (61% ) of the assets under management (AuM). The company was incorporated in year 1988. CAMS is an institutionally owned company with three shareholders - NSE Strategic Investment Corporation – subsidiary of National Stock Exchange Ltd., HDFC Bank group and (Acsys ). ==History== CAMS was founded in early 1988 by V Shankar as a start-up in the area of Software Development and Computer Education. This was a promising venture, and for a period of 3–4 years in the early 90s, it was indeed one of the premier establishments in Chennai, rivaling NIIT in its education market share. The area of Computer Software came into prominence at that time, initially for the domestic market (This was still well before Y2K). As Y2K approached, the market for computer software started to swing around to the overseas market, to the extent that by the 2000s there was almost no credible entity wishing to service the domestic market. That is when CAMS decided (in a contrarian approach) that the domestic financial services marketplace was to be their focus, and the area of operation was to be in managed services, not just IT services. The Indian Financial Services marketplace went through a renaissance in the period 1997/8-2006/7, with far reaching changes in regulation, products and supporting infrastructure. Financial businesses, always early adopters, started taking advantage of technology and networking to facilitate their business, and CAMS pivoted into what are now known as Platform based services to the Indian Financial industry. In 2000 the HDFC Group invested into CAMS in a significant manner, facilitating accelerated growth in its chosen businesses. In 2007 the company accepted a PE investor to further facilitate accelerated growth. In early 2014 India’s premier Stock Exchange, the NSE, took a (significant position in the Company ). CAMS started off as a small team of about 20 personnel and started to process Transfer Agency operations during the early nineties when the equity markets were picking up. CAMS had handled historic IPOs like IPCA Laboratories, Wockhardt Ltd, NCD issues of RPPL, RPEL, Crossland Research Labs Ltd etc. CAMS was also known for processing the first ever allotment of Cars for Ford Escort Model, launched during 1996 by Ford India Pvt Ltd. With the advent of Close ended Mutual Funds, CAMS was involved in processing of Indian Bank Mutual Fund and later started to handle the operations of Alliance Capital Mutual Fund. This was the first Open Ended Mutual Fund of CAMS. CAMS also handled the oldest of Indian Mutual Funds like JM Mutual Fund, ITC Threadneedle, Zurich India Mutual Fund, Sun & FC Mutual Fund, Dundee Mutual Fund, Taurus Mutual Fund etc. As of September 2014, CAMS employs over 3500 staff and offers services to the Mutual Fund, Insurance and Banking industries through its network of (314 locations all over India ). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Computer Age Management Services」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
