The Edelweiss Business Cycle Fund has been introduced by Edelweiss Asset Management (EAMC/EMF), one of the AMCs with the quickest rate of growth in India.
The open-ended equity scheme from Edelweiss uses a business cycle-based investment theme in order to properly utilise market possibilities.
It will be available for subscription from 9 July 2024, until 23 July 2024.
The Edelweiss Business Cycle Fund has developed three baskets, one each for quality, growth, and value equities, using a factor investing approach.
The fund reduces the cyclicality of any one element by rotating across these baskets. The fund creates a diverse portfolio of 50–60 stocks by choosing the firms with the highest momentum among each basket.
Moreover, the fund’s objective is to produce greater alpha by smoothly alternating between sectors over a range of time periods, leveraging both momentum and fundamentals to enter and exit each sector.
