Mid Cap Funds - Latest News Update, Information, Photos & Videos on Mid Cap Funds at Lokmat Times

The Indian market is witnessing a surge in investor interest towards small and mid-cap companies, leading to significant inflows into these segments. However, this enthusiasm has also raised concerns among regulators like SEBI (Securities and Exchange Board of India) about the potential risks involved. To address these concerns and prioritize investor protection, SEBI has urged Asset Management Companies (AMCs) to implement safeguards for investors in small and mid-cap mutual fund schemes. This includes working with trustees and Unitholder Protection Committees to develop policies that moderate inflows, rebalance portfolios, and mitigate any advantages early redeemers might have. Additionally, SEBI is reportedly reviewing stress tests conducted by these funds to assess their ability to handle market fluctuations. Furthermore, Kotak Mahindra Mutual Fund's recent restriction on lump-sum investments in their small-cap fund reflects the broader industry's cautious approach amidst the current market dynamics. These developments highlight the evolving scenario in the small and mid-cap space, where regulators and fund houses are taking steps to ensure investor safety while navigating the current market trends.Meanwhile, Small and mid cap stocks fell sharply on Wednesday amid a big fall in the broader market.
