A flexi cap mutual fund invests in stocks of companies across market capitalizations – large cap, mid cap and small cap. This can help the fund potentially leverage the growth opportunities offered by small and mid cap companies while benefiting from the relative stability of large cap companies.
There is no minimum allocation required in each market capitalization, so the fund manager is free to plan the flexi cap fund investment portfolio as per their growth strategy, market knowledge and insights.
Moreover, the fund manager can dynamically alter the allocation strategy for the flexi cap fund investment based on prevailing market trends. This can potentially help the fund mitigate downside risk or capitalize on segments that are performing well.
Investors who seek long-term capital appreciation and have a high risk-appetite can potentially invest in flexi cap funds. You can invest in Bajaj Finserv Flexi Cap Fund either in lumpsum or through SIP, depending on your financial goals and investment strategy.
