What are flexi cap mutual funds?
As per Securities Exchange Board of India's (Sebi) instructions, flexi cap mutual funds need to have at least 65 per cent of their investments in equity and equity-related instruments. But what makes them unique is the flexi cap fund manager's freedom to pick the stock of any cap- large, mid, or small—and of the company of any market capitalisation. The benefit of this unique combination is that the manager can drop the stocks of a non-performing cap and pick the stocks of a performing cap. But, on the other hand, it also makes the manager's job tough as they need to pick stocks from a vast ocean of companies. The flexi cap category is very highly risky and is suitable for investors with a long-term horizon. The flexi cap mutual fund category has given a 12.08 per cent annualised return (CAGR) in 1 year, 11.88 per cent in 3 years, 16.32 per cent in 5 years, and 12.81 per cent in 10 years.
What are multi cap mutual funds?
