The Wealth Company Mutual Fund has submitted draft papers for the launch of its new scheme, the Wealth Company Arbitrage Fund. The fund is structured as an open-ended arbitrage scheme and proposes to offer units at ₹10 each during the New Fund Offer (NFO).
The stated aim of the scheme is to generate income by making use of arbitrage opportunities between the cash and derivatives segments of the equity market. The balance of the portfolio will be placed in debt and money market instruments. There is no assurance that the investment objective will be met.
Under normal circumstances, equity and related instruments will form 65-100% of the portfolio. Debt and money market securities may form up to 35%, while exposure to REITs and InvITs can go up to 10%. In defensive market conditions, debt allocation could rise to 100%.
The scheme will be benchmarked against the Nifty 50 Arbitrage Index (TRI). According to the product label, the fund is placed in the low-risk category. Subscription and redemption will be available on all business days. Redemption proceeds are required to be dispatched within three working days of a valid request.

There will be no entry load. An exit load of 0.25% will apply if units are redeemed within seven days of allotment. No exit load will be charged after this period.
The scheme will be jointly managed by Aparna Shanker, who has over 30 years of industry experience, and Rouhak Shah, who has worked in trading and equity markets for over 16 years.
With the draft papers filed, the Wealth Company Arbitrage Fund moves a step closer to launch. Final details will be confirmed after SEBI’s approval.
