The journey of a thousand miles begins with the first step! If one looks back upon the inception of Manifest Investments, this adage rings true.

Three individuals with a keen interest in the world of finances started their careers as stock brokers in various firms. C. J. Gopinath founded Manifest Stocks, as a stock broking firm in November 1995. Meanwhile, P.K. Padmakar had begun his career as an Authorised Assistant on the Bangalore Stock exchange floors under the aegis of U. B. Maiya& Company. Jayesh Doshi initiated his foray into the world of investments as an Authorised assistant on the Bangalore Stock Exchange as part of Ashok & Company, 1994.

The years between 1995 and 2000 were spent in accruing professional experience in all these roles. The confluence of their strengths happened when P.K. Padmakar and Jayesh Doshi joined C. J. Gopinath as co-founders and formed "Manifest Investments Pvt Ltd", in May 2001.

As the firm increased it business and clientele, the company decided to branch into insurance services and acquired an IRDA license and entered into an agreement with HDFC Standard Life Insurance Company to sell life insurance products, in 2003. Manifest Investments grew from strengthto strength on the twin bedrock of stock broking and insurance products in the ensuing five years.

History repeated itself in 2010 when Manifest Investments diversified again into financial planning and selling mutual fund products. In their quest for excellence and optimum readiness, C. J. Gopinath and Jayesh Doshi undertook steps to become Certified Financial Planners (CFP ). Additionally, they also acquired a license to sell Mutual Fund schemes in India.

Manifest Investments strives to promote financial literacy amongst their clients. Our clients have endorsed this feature, time and again! The labyrinthine world of financial management is made simpler and smoother for lay people only because the Manifest team works hard to create customized financial solutions for each and every client.

Currently we manage assets of around Rs.100 crs and run a risk cover of Rs.100 crs spread across 400+ clients in and around Bangalore.

Manifest Investments can be justifiably proud of their journey and achievements in the past 22 years. However, their mission is to scale greater heights in the field of financial advisory services be delivering top-notch advice and products to a growing clientele.
