The open-ended equity fund is aimed at long-term capital growth via investing in equity securities of companies located in emerging markets
PGIM India MF, one of the top 10 largest investment managers in the world, has recently announced its new offering, the PGIM India Flexi Cap Fund. The fund is an open-ended one benchmarked with MSCI Emerging Markets Index, and will be managed in India by A Anandha and Aniruddha Naha. While A Anandha is the AVP-Equities with PGIM India, he brings with him 12 years of experience in financial services. Of these, he spent 8 years in the capital markets. Meanwhile, Aniruddha Naha is Director and Senior Fund Manager at PGIM India, and he brings to the fund his considerable experience in Equities and Asset Management.
What is the PGIM India Flexi Cap Fund?
Broadly, it is an open-ended dynamic equity scheme (including derivatives) that will invest across a range of large-, mid- and small-cap stocks in new and emerging markets.
Earlier known as the PGIM India Diversified Equity Fund, it was devised as an option to generate long-term capital growth from investing in companies from emerging markets via the PGIM Jennison Emerging Markets Equity Fund. The scheme has a range of key features that suit high risk investors looking to accelerate their investments in new markets. The fundÂs involvement with new and emerging markets taps into their higher propensity for consumption, greater resilience to shifting trends and a higher appetite for technological intervention and innovation to drive growth.
The fund drives a disciplined approach to investment management, with a strong focus on RoCE and RoE, favouring industries about to consolidate, while underlining solid financials and sector dominance. It makes investment possible in themes not currently available through large caps (real estate, software, chemicals, discretionary retail, etc.)
The key features of the PGIM India Flexi Cap Fund are:
The fund is expected to tap into the higher recorded middle-class spending in emerging markets, whose regions and sectors have the potential to grow exponentially at a rapid pace, thus ensuring long-term capital growth for investors. It has already performed well with both its options  Regular and Direct  since its inception in September 2007. Investors must note that from October 24, 2020, the benchmark of the Scheme is MSCI Emerging Markets Index.
