UBL Fund Managers, one of the leading asset management companies in Pakistan announced the launch of its latest value-added service for clients, called UBL Funds "Tele-Transact". This service will allow UBL Funds clients place transactions in their investment account by simply calling the company's toll-free number.

He said "Generally people perceive investment processes to be long and cumbersome. We have redefined how things work - now clients have the flexibility and freedom to manage their account at their fingertips. No need to fill physical forms and send them to branches for processing. It really can't get easier than this."
