⚖️ Sahifund Review – ICICI Prudential Focused Equity Fund
✓ PLUS: Strong performance, proven track record, cost efficiency
ICICI Prudential Focused Equity Fund has delivered consistent outperformance across 1-year, 3-year and 5-year periods, clearly beating both benchmark and peers. The fund follows a high-conviction focused strategy with disciplined stock selection across market caps. A competitive expense ratio of 0.60% enhances long-term return potential, while experienced fund management adds confidence for long-term SIP investors.
⚖️ MINUS: Large AUM, high churn, concentration risk
With AUM above Rs. 14,000 crore, maintaining agility may become challenging in fast-changing markets. High portfolio turnover increases volatility and execution risk. Being a focused fund, performance can deviate sharply during market corrections due to stock concentration.
Sahifund Verdict:
A top-quality focused equity fund for investors seeking alpha with discipline—ideal for long-term SIPs, but requires patience during volatile phases.
