RTA (Registrar and Transfer Agent)
A SEBI-registered firm that keeps investor records and processes transactions for mutual funds and companies.
An RTA maintains the register of unit holders or shareholders. For a mutual fund it processes purchases, redemptions, switches and SIPs, updates KYC and nominee details, and sends account statements. CAMS and KFintech are the two largest mutual fund RTAs in India, and NISM Series II-B certifies their staff.
