StanChart MF to focus on high margin equity products

Our Bureau

Hyderabad, Jan. 23 Standard Chartered Mutual Fund will be focusing on high-margin products in its equity fund segment over the next two years. “StanChart MF has forayed into equity schemes two years ago after gaining a firm ground in fixed income fund (debt fund) segment. We now have a platform on which we can build a sound business,” Mr Rajiv Anand, Head (Investments), Standard Chartered MF told Business Line here on Monday.

The fund house, sponsored by Standard Chartered Group, currently has a product/business ratio of 35:65 in equity schemes and debt schemes.

“Our target is to bring equity and debt products to 50:50 over next two years,” Mr Anand said. The firm, which has recently launched a three-year close-ended fund (StanChart Small and Mid Cap Fund) to be closed on February 15, is also working on new products. “.
