Aditya Birla Sun Life Business Cycle Fund REVIEW


Aditya Birla Sun Life has launched Business Cycle Fund NFO which is open for subscription on November 15, 2021. It is an open-ended equity scheme. It will focus on riding the business cycle through dynamic allocation between different sectors and stocks at different stages of the business cycle in the economy

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE

The investment objective of the scheme is to provide long term capital appreciation by investing predominantly in equity and equity related securities with a focus on riding business cycles through dynamic allocation between various sectors and stocks at different stages of business cycles in the economy.

INVESTMENT STRATEGY

The Fund would follow top down approach of portfolio construction to identify stage of business cycle, sector opportunities and subsequently using bottom up approach identify strong companies within those sectors.

The Scheme would aim to deploy the business cycle approach in investing by identifying economic trends and investing in the sectors and stocks that are likely to outperform at any given stage of business cycle. The fund manager will consider economic parameters (like Current Account Deficit, fiscal deficit, interest rates, inflation), investment indicators (like investment in capex, new projects cleared, etc.), business and consumer sentiment (purchasing manager index, business confidence index, sales of various consumer discretionary products, etc.) to decide on the expansion or contraction phase. For instance, during the early expansion phase, cyclical stocks tend to outperform. In the contraction period, the defensive groups or sectors that are less sensitive to changes in overall economic activity like healthcare, consumer staples, etc. outperform because of their stable cash flows and dividend yields.
