What is passive investing?

  • Passive Investing tracks or closely imitates a predetermined benchmark or index.

  • A rule-based portfolio that eliminates individual biases and selects stocks or companies according to predetermined rules.

  • A portfolio that reflects the market's collective wisdom, with index performance subject to tracking inaccuracy and costs.

  • Because the fund management doesn't actively make decisions, the expense ratio is typically lower than in an active mutual fund scheme.

Risk Factors In Such Funds

  • Because the passively managed scheme invests in equities within the underlying index, it will be vulnerable to the risks that come with a concentration of capital in a specific industry or company.

  • Due to its mission, the Scheme invests in equities of the underlying index, which is a representation of the Nifty 200 Momentum 30 Index with 30 constituents. As a result, it is susceptible to the risks that come with concentration of this kind.

  • During index rebalancing, the weight of each stock is capped, which could aid in reducing the risk of concentration. Furthermore, the Scheme would be vulnerable to the risks associated with a decline in the stocks' normalized momentum scores between two dates for index rebalancing.

  • The dangers of investing in stocks include price swings since stock markets are prone to volatility and might drop in reaction to developments in the political, regulatory, economic, market, and stock-specific domains, among other areas.
