Mid-Cap Funds Lead Long-Term Returns; Multi-Asset Funds Show Diverse StrategiesPreviousNext

Mid-cap mutual funds have outperformed large-cap and flexi-cap funds over five and 10 years, delivering average annualised returns of 13.41% and 14.80%, respectively, according to ICRA Analytics. Experts advise considering both long-term and one-year returns to assess fund performance, as short-term results can reveal recent weaknesses. Meanwhile, top multi-asset funds show diverse investment strategies, allocating varying proportions to equities, debt, gold, and real estate, reflecting different approaches to diversification and risk management.
