Fund Objective and Strategy

• Provide superior long term returns while protecting against permanent loss of capital: Invest in long-term growth opportunities in Indian companies across market capitalization  (with greater emphasis on mid and small cap companies that are not fully discovered) that have superior business model, sufficiently large market opportunity to deliver growth, strong and shareholder focused management and are available at price that would result in sufficiently attractive risk adjusted returns over a horizon of at least two years.
• Manage market exposure both by modulating cash position in the portfolio depending on the opportunity set and attractiveness of investment ideas.
• Follow Rigorous fundamental research-driven and rule based investment process that is disciplined and yet leaves enough room for creativity and ingenuity; Investment process entails interactions with the companies through common as well as uncommon means, detailed financial model on the company as well as the industry to properly size up the growth opportunity, completion of a detailed check-list and review of investment argument by the entire research team.

• Focus on long-term return and hence may experience short term volatility, but will use its research capability to minimize the permanent loss of capital and will adhere to established risk guidelines.
