Suitable For Which Investors?
This is a fund that invests mainly in the shares of companies operating in the natural resources and energy sectors.
We believe that investors should avoid funds that have a narrowly defined investment mandate such as this one. Instead, they should invest in flexi-cap funds which provide complete freedom to the fund management team to invest in companies from which it expects maximum gains.
But if you do invest, you must do so only through the SIP route.
Fund’s Investment Strategy:
The scheme will invest in equity and equity related securities of companies domiciled in India and a certain portion in companies domiciled overseas, whose predominant economic activity is in the (a) discovery, development, production, or distribution of natural resources, viz., energy, mining, etc.
Fund Manager:
1) Rohit Singhania
Education: Mr. Singhania is an MMS.
Experience: Prior to joining DSP AMC he has worked with HDFC Securities Ltd. and IL&FS Investsmart Limited.
