The investment objective of the scheme is to achieve long-term capital appreciation by investing in a portfolio of securities that are involved in special situations such as restructurings, turnarounds, spin-offs, mergers & acquisitions, new trends, new & emerging sectors, digitization, premiumization, and other special corporate actions. These situations often create mispricings and undervalued opportunities that the fund aims to exploit for potential capital appreciation.
However, there can be no assurance or guarantee that the investment objective of the scheme would be achieved.

The Samco Special Opportunities Fund demonstrates dynamic flexibility, crucial for navigating the ever-changing landscape of sectors and themes in the investment world. Its adaptability allows it to swiftly shift focus across diverse areas such as defence, energy, railways, pharmaceuticals, and infrastructure, capitalizing on the best opportunities as they emerge rather than sticking to just one theme. This strategic flexibility ensures that the fund can adapt to and thrive in the fluid nature of market trends, offering a robust advantage to investors seeking diversified exposure and potential growth across varied sector, for compounding their wealth.
The fund is designed to be universe agnostic, meaning it does not limit its investment scope to companies of a specific market capitalization. This strategy allows the fund to explore and capitalize on special situations across the entire market spectrum, from large-cap to micro-cap companies. By not confining itself to a particular segment, the fund is able to pursue a wide range of investment opportunities wherever they may arise, enhancing its potential for capital appreciation by tapping into diverse and sometimes underexplored areas of the market.
