SEBI encourages investors to pay fees to their investment advisers (IAs) and research analysts (RAs) through CeFCoM. CeFCoM is a secure and transparent payment ecosystem developed with the objective of securing that investors pay fees only to registered investment advisors and research analysts. It is an optional mechanism. CeFCoM is thus a payment mechanism that differentiates registered IAs and RAs from unregistered entities acting as IAs and RAs. CeFCoM has been operationalised from 1st October 2024 and is managed by BSE Ltd in association with MF Utilities India Pvt. Ltd. In CeFCoM, investors can make payment of fees through multiple payment modes such as Net Banking, Debit Card, UPI/UPI Autopay, IMPS/NEFT/RTGS, eNACH and even through Cheque and Credit Cards
