Kotak ESG Opportunities Fund Guidance
NAV Growth : Rs 11.8790
NAV IDCW : Rs 11.8790
Suitable For Which Investors ?
When you invest for five years or more, you can expect gains that comfortably beat the inflation rate as well as returns from fixed income options. But be prepared for ups and downs in your investment value along the way.
This is a Thematic ESG fund where the fund management team has complete freedom to invest in companies of different sizes, depending on where it expects maximum gains. This versatility makes Thematic ESG funds most suitable for equity fund investors, as the job of stock selection is left completely to the fund manager, which is the very idea of investing in a mutual fund.
Like for all equity funds, you must invest only through the SIP route.
Fund’s Investment Strategy :
The scheme seeks to generate capital appreciation by investing in a diversified portfolio of companies that follow Environmental, Social and Governance parameters.
Fund Manager :
— Harsha Upadhyaya
Education : Mr. Upadhyaya is a B.E (Mechanicial) from NIT Suratkal, PGDM from IIM Lucknow and CFA from the CFA Institute, USA.
Experience : Prior to joining Kotak Mutual fund he has worked with DSP Mutual Fund and UTI AMC.
