About the Fund

Fund Objective

The investment objective of the Scheme is to generate capital appreciation and income by predominantly investing in arbitrage opportunities in the cash and the derivative segments of the equity markets and the arbitrage opportunities available within the derivative segment and by investing the balance in debt and money market instruments.

There is no assurance that the investment objective of the scheme will be achieved.

Fund Description

Arbitrage is a strategy of identifying and capturing the price difference of a stock in the cash market and its corresponding price in the futures market. This involves buying a stock in the cash market and simultaneously selling it in the futures market at a higher price. The key principle behind this strategy is that the cash market price converges with the futures market price at the end of the month. This convergence creates a window of opportunity to capture the price differential and realize a profit with low risk.

Why Invest in this Fund?

01

Seeks to generate returns by investing in arbitrage opportunities between spot and futures prices of equities and within the derivatives segment, aiming to capture pricing inefficiencies.

02

Employs market-neutral strategies such as cash-futures arbitrage and index arbitrage to lock in spreads, reducing the impact of market direction on returns.

03

Maintains flexibility to invest in debt and money market securities when suitable arbitrage opportunities are not available.
