The HDFC Mutual Fund has submitted a draft scheme information document (SID) for the HDFC Equity Allocator Fund of Funds with the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI). Below is a comprehensive breakdown of the key aspects of the fund.

The objective of the Scheme

The primary objective of the HDFC Equity Allocator Fund of Funds is to generate long-term capital appreciation by investing in units of equity-oriented schemes. The fund aims to diversify its investment portfolio through investments in a variety of equity funds managed by the AMC. However, it’s important to note that there is no guarantee that the investment objective will be achieved​. 

Benchmark

The performance of the fund will be benchmarked against the NIFTY 500 Index (Total Returns Index – TRI). This index represents the top 500 companies in terms of market capitalization in India, providing a broad market comparison for the fund’s performance​. 

Fund Category

  • 0% to 5% in government securities, treasury bills, repo on government securities, and liquid or overnight mutual fund schemes​. 

Investment Strategy

The fund will primarily invest in units of other equity-oriented schemes managed by HDFC Mutual Fund. The allocation across different schemes will be adjusted based on market conditions and the fund manager’s short to medium-term outlook. In addition to equity investments, a small portion of the fund will be held in government securities and liquid instruments to meet liquidity needs​. 

Fund Manager

The fund will be managed by Srinivasan Ramamurthy, a seasoned fund manager with over 17 years of experience in equity research and fund management. His extensive experience in managing diverse portfolios and equity funds adds value to the scheme​.
