MNC funds

 

Mutual funds ( MFs) which have concentrated on the multinational corporation ( MNC) theme have done exceedingly well in the past five years, as as well as the top sector funds.

Birla Sun Life MNC Fund and UTI Fund have returned 26 per cent and 23 per cent annually in the past five years. These two schemes manage about ₹ 750 crore. The best performing fund category, fast- moving consumer goods (FMCG), returned 29 per cent annually in the same period. The pharmaceuticals and information technology categories returned 27 per cent and 22 per cent, respectively, according to Value Research. In this period, the Sensex returned 12 per cent annually.

What makes MNC funds different from others? As the name suggests, their portfolio is loaded with pure MNC or joint venture stocks. For instance, the top three holdings of UTI MNC Fund are Maruti Suzuki, Bosch and Eicher; all three are automobile and components companies. Birla Sun Life's MNC scheme has ICRA, ING Vyasa and Honeywell Automation – two financials and one engineering firm. HDFC Top 200, one the top performing funds, has State Bank of India, Infosys and ICICI Bank as top picks.

Mahesh Patil, co- chief investment officer at Birla Sun Life MF, says the biggest advantage of MNCs is their transparency in terms of management, cash flow, balance sheet and an absence of corporate governance issues. "These funds are meant for those looking for less volatility and steady returns from their portfolio," he adds.

The other advantage of these funds is that these don't focus on any one sector and, hence, are less risky than sector funds. But investors should have a horizon of three to five years. As these funds can perform in both bull and bear markets, experts believe there is more upside to these. One could take 10 per cent exposure in these.

The investor interest in these funds, beside the performance, is because there are expectations that some of these might delist, after the Securities and Exchange Board of India said listed private sector companies needed a public shareholding of at least 25 per cent. This means promoters of listed entities need to bring their stakes to below 75 per cent, by diluting their holding or delisting the stock.

Last year, the parents of three MNCs – Hindustan Unilever, GlaxoSmithKline Consumer Healthcare and McGraw Hill Financial – had announced voluntary open offers to increase their stake to 75 per cent.

The delisting story might, however, take a back seat for two or three years. Given the sharp rise in share prices and the rupee wobbling around 60 a dollar, the parent company will have to cough up a higher sum if it wants to delist. Analysts believe many companies which announced open offers might delist over the next two to three years. Says Vidya Bala, head of MF research at FundsIndia. com: "There's a renewed interest in these funds also because they have started investing in cyclicals ( engineering and capital goods) now as opposed to defensives ( FMCG and pharmaceuticals) before the current rally. That's why these funds have been able to perform well in this rally

The fund sticks to its mandate to adapt to the dynamic nature of the market by shuttling between debt and equity. It takes aggressive asset calls in equity when the market surges by investing in quality mid-cap stocks. At the same time, it adopts a defensive strategy by investing in debt and cash when markets get overvalued, making it a good long-term choice.     For further information contact Prajna Capital on 94 8300 8300 by leaving a missed call     Leave a missed Call on 94 8300 8300   Leave your comment with mail ID and we will ...

Lump Sum or SIP?

Invest Mutual Fund Online     You have a lump sum in hand and you wish to invest in equity funds. However, you have heard a lot of talk about investing in equity funds through Systematic Investment Plans (SIPs) because they help average costs, ensure you do not ill-time the market, and help you invest in small sums, besides giving you many other advantages. So, should you invest the money you have in hand in one go, or let it remain in your bank account and then do an SIP? There is no harm in investing a lump sum amount. For all you know, compounding, over the long term, could work better with lump sum. However, make sure you fulfill all of these three criteria if you want to invest in one go. Else, SIP is the way to go. #1: You invest for the long term According to past data, ideally, if you have a time frame of 12 years or more, you can consider lump sum investing (provided you satisfy the other two conditions that follow). So, what is the sanctity behind 12 years? Is it because only...

Mutual Fund Review: Reliance Regular Savings Balanced

Reliance Regular Savings Balanced fund has shown great resilience during market crash After a shaky start, this fund has established itself as a strong contender in this space. In the past three years it has ridden the market well by not only delivering during the market run-ups but also displaying resilience during the crash. In 2008, it witnessed the second lowest fall among its category and last year it was amongst the top three performers with a return of 76 per cent (category average: 61%).   The poor underperformance in 2006 can well be credited to the low equity allocation of the fund, which stood at just over 10 per cent for only four months that year. Though the fund has the leeway to go up to 75 per cent in equity, it has never touched that limit. In fact, it has exceeded 70 per cent in just five months in its entire history. During the crash of 2008, the fund managers had no problem going right down to 54 per cent (equity exposure). Fund managers Omprakash Kukian and A...
