The debt portion uses a mix of sovereign and corporate bonds, but mainly with ratings of AA or above in the latter.

The fund's underperformance of category and peers in the last one year has seen the margin of outperformance narrow over three and five years, too. Save for 2008, when it lagged behind the index, the fund has been quite good at handling both bull and bear phases. The fund's exceptional returns in 2009, 2014 and 2017 show that it has been particularly adept at playing the big bull years.
