SBI Technology Opportunities Fund
NAV Growth: Rs 149.4869
NAV IDCW: Rs 106.1759
Suitable For Which Investors?
This is a fund that invests mainly in shares of companies in the information technology sector.
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 seeks to provide the investor with the opportunity of long-term capital appreciation by investing in a diversified portfolio of equity and equity related securities in technology and technology related companies.
Fund Manager:
1) Saurabh Pant
Education: Mr. Pant is a B.Com (H), MBE and CFA (Level III).
Experience: He has been associated with SBI Mutual Fund since 2007.
