Tata Asset Management launches bot on Telegram

POST is expected to help Tata Asset Management drive efficiency in dissemination of information about funds among Telegram users.

Tata Asset Management has launched Tata Mutual Fund – POST, a new bot to communicate with the Independent Financial Advisors (IFA) community. The BoT has been developed in association with Amplispot, the martech partner of Tata Asset Management, on the social networking app, Telegram where the IFA community is already present in big numbers.

Dissemination of information that is relevant, high quality and periodic, needed segregation from information received on public chat platforms. The team chose Telegram as a mode of communication due to its wider reach and ease of use in the B2B Space. Having understood the need-gap, Tata Mutual Fund created an outreach initiative across channel partners to enrol them for a "stay-in-touch digitally" initiative. 

The BoT service POST allows for sharing of content across formats — docs, pdfs, jpegs, videos, etc. and ferries across information effortlessly for file sizes up to 1.5 GB.
