Should You Buy
This fund currently runs a sizeable presence in both large- and smallcaps, apart from its mid-cap tilt. It strives for a balance between structural and cyclical picks. The preference is for businesses that adopt a single-focus approach. The fund portfolio is heavily diversified, with the fund managers preferring modest exposure even in top bets to keep risks at bay. The fund struggled with chronic underperformance between 2017 and 2021. It has since improved its return profile while also elevating its risk metrics. A sustained improvement in performance could make this fund a worthy bet in this space.
