mutual fund portfolio is not so tough in today's time. However, choosing the right funds, right allocations and right investment goals is something that comes with experience in the market. The ever-so-volatile nature of stock markets may sound scary at first but with the right strategies you can achieve decent returns without doing much. In an ET Markets exclusive interview, Chethan Shenoy, Executive Director & Head of Research & Product at Anand Rathi Wealth Ltd opened up about the strategies that investors can use to create a stable fund portfolio in 2024. Edited excerpts: Q. What is the first step when it comes to portfolio creation? Always set a target and an EMF alpha target. For example, a 12% portfolio return target and a 3% equity MF alpha target above the Nifty 50. The next step is deciding on asset allocation. You must opt for asset classes that have a low correlation. Debt and Equity have a low correlation, and a combo of these two assets can help in targeting a return of around 12% based on your horizon of investment. EMF has delivered an average return of 12-13% over the long term, and Debt MFs have approximately delivered a 7% return. In the Debt portion, consider funds with a roll-down strategy or arbitrage funds. Gains from arbitrage are treated as equity gains, qualifying for a lower tax rate as compared to normal debt funds.
