The DSP Group, headed by Mr. Hemendra Kothari is one of India’s oldest financial services firms having commenced its stock broking business in the 1860’s. Over the last 150 plus years, the DSP Group has flourished in the financial services space in India. One of the founding members of the DSP Group was an instrumental force in setting up the Bombay Stock Exchange.
The DSP Group has evolved over the years – from stock broking in the 1860s, investment banking in the 1970s to wealth and asset management from the 1990s to the present. During our journey we have gained substantial international experience from our partnerships with Dresdner Bank AG, Banque Francaise Du Commerce Exterieur (BFCE), Swiss Bank Corporation (now UBS), Merrill Lynch and BlackRock. Today DSP Investment Managers is an established player in the asset management space and is counted among India's most respected investment management firms.
The DSP family commenced its stock broking business (First generation into this business).
The first Indian stock exchange (now Bombay Stock Exchange) was established, with the DSP family among the founding members.
Mr. Hemendra Kothari joined his family’s broking firm DS Purbhoodas (Fourth generation from the family).
DSP Financial Consultants (DSPFC) entered into a business tie-up with Merill Lynch, USA’s then largest investment bank.
DSPFC finally entered into an official tie up with Merrill Lynch providing an equity stake to Merrill Lynch of 29.41% with a provision to increase it up to 40%. This new investment banking partnership was called DSP Merrill Lynch Ltd. (DSPML).
DSP Merill Lynch Asset Management launched its first domestic equity and its first domestic debt mutual fund schemes.
In line with BlackRock’s takeover of Merrill Lynch’s global asset management business in 2006, DSP Merrill Lynch Fund Managers became DSP BlackRock Investment Managers.
