LIC Nomura MF Mid Cap Fund Invest Online

The season of new fund offers continues and perhaps now is the turn for those fund houses that have so far stayed away. LIC Nomura Mutual Fund Asset Management Co. Ltd has launched its latest offering called LIC Nomura MF Mid Cap Fund. It will invest in medium–sized companies and its benchmark index is the CNX Midcap. It will invest in shares of those companies that either lie in the CNX Midcap index or in companies whose market capitalization is between that of the largest and smallest company in the CNX Midcap index. It is an open-ended fund and is structured like any plain-vanilla mid-cap scheme. The fund managers told us that, among other things, they would look at the underlying company's liquidity in the stock market. Expect the fund to be diversified more than usual; the fund managers said for a mid-cap fund strategy, they aren't comfortable with a tightly-held portfolio.

WHAT WORKS...

As India's economy shows signs of picking up, there's a revival in the investment cycle. Companies are looking forward to using their capacities more, which would result in better output and, therefore, better earnings. In an improving economy, mid-caps tend to outperform large-caps since the positive sentiment tends to trickle down to small- and mid-sized companies as well. And in rising markets, investors' appetite for small companies also goes up as their risk–taking ability goes up simultaneously. In 2014, S&P BSE Midcap index rose by 55%, as against rising just 5.73% a year prior. In fact, mid-caps outperformed large-caps as S&P BSE Sensex rose 30% in 2014.

...WHAT DOESN'T

Mid-caps are risky and they can fall as swiftly as they rise. A fund manager's ability in spotting the right companies at the right prices is very important. LIC Nomura MF's track record, though not inspiring, has certainly improved. Performances of two of its flagship schemes, LIC Nomura MF–Equity and LIC Nomura MF–Growth, have turned around. In 2014, the first scheme was in the top two quintiles with returns of 42%, while the second one very nearly made it there with returns of 40%. However, there are scores of fund houses that have a far better track record. Besides, LIC Nomura MF Mid Cap Fund is a new scheme and, therefore, has no track record.

The fund sticks to its mandate to adapt to the dynamic nature of the market by shuttling between debt and equity.

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 ...

Understanding Your Cibil Credit Information Report

   WE ARE all familiar with the anxiety and uncertainty that we feel when applying for a loan. After all, it's the lender who decides whether we can own our dream home, our first car, or whether our children can pursue higher education. In a nutshell, a better life depends on the lender's decisions.    While other factors do play a part in the lender's decision, the Cibil Credit Information Report ( CIR ) plays a crucial role in a lender's decision to approve a loan application.    Previously, lenders would treat all loan seekers equally. Each applicant, if approved by the lender's internal credit policy, would be charged at the same interest rate for a particular loan size and purpose. The lenders would charge a higher interest rate to all the borrowers, in order to compensate for the possible default of a small portion of the loan disbursed. In other words, it's like a professor (the lender) punishing an entire class (borrowers) for the mischief played b...

Mutual Fund Review: ING Dividend Yield

  ING Dividend Yield's small assets enable the fund manager to churn in impressive returns… Strategy The aim of the fund is to invest in stocks which offer a high dividend yield. This fund deploys a value based strategy which aims to gain from investing in fundamentally strong and free cash flow generating businesses. The scheme focuses not only on growth but also on the cash generated by the business, which mostly leads to stable returns even in volatile markets. This fund has a low volatility because of its investment in high yielding stocks. The scheme tries to include stocks that yield dividend above the dividend yield of the Nifty and stocks with liquidity, which throws up a universe of 150 stocks.   Our View Launched in October 2005, this fund invests at least 65 per cent of its assets in high dividend yield stocks. The fund has consistently maintained a mix of stocks across varying market capitalisation, with a higher tilt to mid caps compared to small caps. Howev...

Financial Planner - Do Integrity & Dependability Check

How does one can find value proposition when it comes to financial planning, which is a new area? There is nothing to benchmark it with. So, how does one figure what is the right fee to pay? Look at what you want. You probably want to hire a financial planner to get a blueprint for your life ahead and want to know how to achieve your goals. For creating a tailor-made financial plan, our experience is that it takes 25-30 man-hours in all. Taking an average of Rs 500 per hour for hiring the services of a qualified financial planner like one who has a CFP(CM) certificate, the fee would come to Rs 12,500 to Rs 15,000. But the per-hour rate can be higher or lower depending on the process adopted, the experience and expertise of the planner, etc. That's how planners arrive at their fee. Now, is that value for money? For that you need to find out what benefits you would derive by engaging them. The financial plan will give you clarity, direction and pathway to achieve your goals. Th...
