About Multicap Mutual Funds
Multi-cap mutual funds are diversified equity funds that invest your money in shares of companies with different market capitalizations. That is, investors’ money is invested in shares of large-cap, mid-cap and small-cap companies under these funds.
According to SEBI rules, it is mandatory to invest 75% of the fund in equity in this category. However, mutual funds can rebalance the multicap fund. They also have the option to switch to another scheme from time to time.
Advantage of investing in multicap
The advantage of this is that if investors are confused about where to invest their money large-cap, mid-cap, small-cap, then the multi-cap category not only removes this dilemma, but your portfolio gets automatically diversified in it. The second advantage is that large-cap funds give stability to your portfolio, while you can get high returns in mid-cap and small-cap. On the other hand, if the performance of any one segment such as mid-cap or small-cap is poor, then large-cap can balance it. Similarly, mid-cap or small-cap can recover the loss in large-cap. Overall, these funds protect against losses in difficult times.
