Sundaram Mutual Fund Launches Equity Ex-Top 100 Long Short SIF Amid Mixed Sector Performance
Specialised Investment Funds (SIFs), introduced in 2025, offer advanced investment strategies focusing on mid- and small-cap stocks outside the top 100 by market capitalization. Recent data shows mixed performance, with some SIFs like quant Mutual Fund's qsif and 360 ONE Asset's Dyna delivering positive returns despite a challenging September. Sundaram Mutual Fund recently launched its Select Equity Ex-Top 100 Long Short Fund, aiming to raise Rs 350 crore, targeting high-growth mid- and small-cap companies with limited short exposure through derivatives. SIFs provide an alternative to traditional mutual funds with distinct risk and return profiles.
