BNP Paribas Enhanced Arbitrage Fund


BNP Paribas Enhanced Arbitrage Fund is better than the industry liquid, liquid plus, short term and Accrual Funds.

 

·         As we all know the yields have dropped drastically and clients have made money in the recent times from the debt products . The important question to be answered is what from NOW ON .

·         If one decided to invest further in any short term or accrual fund in the industry he/she should consider the following.

 

SHORT TERM FUNDS

 

1.       The YTM spread between liquid and short term fund today stand at approx. 20 – 40 bps.

 

2.       As a investor net of expense ( 1.25 industry average ) one would be minimum 100 bps below liquid fund return in their short term or accrual funds from day 1

 

3.       With the recent action by RBI post demonetarization CRR hike and MSS bond issue has taken away the large hope of serial rate cuts in the short term.

 

4.       In the current scenario if one decides to enter into a product with  average modified duration at 2.5 years , even with the view of 50 Bps rate cut in the next 6 months the return of short term funds might just match up to liquid fund returns.

 

5.       With customer expectation for superior returns like the recent past , it would not be the right thing to do by investing in short term funds in the industry

 

6.       Moving to Accrual funds with credit portfolio, we are not saying credit default might happen but beware that if yield hardens on a 3 yr AAA rated paper from here it would be more on the AA- and A+ paper. This means low credit portfolio might have high negative MTM impact in case of yield hardening.

 

7.       With global scenario not being so conducive and domestic events not giving 1 year direction for duration based products the best suitable product in the so volatile times like this is BNP Paribas Enhanced Arbitrage Fund

 

 

1.       No duration risk in the portfolio

2.       No credit risk

3.       Equity taxation which saves you 15% on your return

4.       Even on a liquid fund matching performance scenario the net return difference could 15 % higher because of Equity Taxation.

5.       Tax free dividend makes it even more a efficient product

6.       Potential ALPHA generation through long short strategy

Tata Mutual Fund

Being a part of the Tata group, the fund has the backing of a very trusted brand name with strong retail connect. While the current CEO has done an excellent job in leveraging the Tata brand name to AMC's advantage, it is ironic that this was just not capitalised on at the start. Incorporated in 1995, Tata Mutual Fund remained an 'also-ran' fund house for around eight years. Till March 2003, it had a little over Rs 1,000 crore in assets and 19 AMCs were ahead of it. But soon after that the equation changed. It was the fastest growing fund house in 2004 and 2005. During these two years, it aggressively launched six equity funds, two debt funds and one MIP. The fund house as of now stands at No. 8 in terms of asset size. This fund house has a lot to offer by way of choice. And, it also has a number of well performing schemes. Tata Pure Equity, Tata Equity PE and Tata Infrastructure are all good funds. It also has quite a few good debt funds. The funds of Tata AMC are known to...

UTI Mutual Fund

Even though only a few of UTI’s funds are great performers, this public sector fund house has many advantages that its rivals do not. It has a huge base of retail equity investors and a vast distribution network. As a business, it looks stronger than ever, especially in the aftermath of credit crunch. UTI is, by a large margin, the most profitable fund company in the country. This is not surprising, since managing equity funds is more profitable than debt. Its conservative approach and stable parentage is likely to make it look more attractive to investors in times to come. UTI’s big problem is the dragging performance that many of its equity funds suffer from. In recent times, the management has made a concerted effort to improve performance. However, these moves have coincided with a disastrous phase in the stock markets and that has made it impossible to judge whether the overhaul will eventually be a success. UTI’s top performers are a few index funds, some hybrid funds and its inf...

Salary planning Article

1. The salary (basic + DA) should be low. The rest should come by way of such allowances on which the employer pays FBT and you don't pay any tax thereon. 2. Interest paid on housing loan is deductible u/s 24 up to Rs 1.5 lakh (Rs 150,000) on self-occupied property and without any limit on a commercial or rented house. 3. The repayment of housing loan from specified sources is also deductible irrespective of whether the house is self-occupied or given on rent within the overall ceiling of Rs 1 lakh of Sec. 80C. 4. Where the accommodation provided to the employee is taken on lease by the employer, the perk value is the actual amount of lease rental or 20 per cent of the salary, whichever is lower. Understandably, if the house belongs to a family member who is at a low or nil tax zone the family benefits. Yes, the maximum benefit accrues when the rent is over 20 per cent of the salary. 5. A chauffeur driven motor car provided by the employer has no perk value. True, the company would...

8 Investing Strategy

The stock market ‘meltdown’ witnessed since the start of 2005 (notwithstanding the recent marginal recovery) has once again brought to the forefront an inherent weakness existent in our markets. This is the fact that FIIs, indisputably and almost entirely, dominate the Indian stock market sentiments and consequently the market movements. In this article, we make an attempt to list down a few points that would aid an investor in mitigating the risks and curtailing the losses during times of volatility as large investors (read FIIs) enter and exit stocks. Read on Manage greed/fear: This is an important point, which every investor must keep in mind owing to its great influencing ability in equity investment decisions. This point simply means that in a bull run - control the greed factor, which could entice you, the investor, to compromise with your investment principles. By this we mean that while an investor could get lured into investing in penny and small-cap stocks owing to their eye-...

Debt Funds - Check The Expiry Date

This time we give you an insight into something that most debt fund investors would be unaware of, the Average Portfolio Maturity. As we all know, debt funds invest in bonds and securities. These instruments mature over a certain period of time, which is called maturity. The maturity is the length of time till the principal amount is returned to the security-holder or bond-holder. A debt fund invests in a number of such instruments and each of these instruments would be having different maturity times. Hence, the fund calculates a weighted average maturity, which would give a fair idea of the fund's maturity period. For example, if a fund owns three bonds of 2-year (Rs 30,000), 3-year (Rs 10,000) and 5-year (Rs 20,000) maturities, its weighted average maturity would be 3.17 years. What is the big deal about average maturity then, you may ask. Well, knowing a fund's average maturity is important because it tells you how sensitive a fund is to the change in interest rates. It is ...
