After launching arbitrage and mid-cap-based strategies under its Specialised Investment Fund (SIF), Edelweiss Mutual Fund’s Altiva SIF is set to launch its third strategy, focused on large-cap equities, on September 10.
The new large-cap-focused strategy will combine large-cap equity exposure with an income-oriented derivatives overlay. Radhika Gupta, MD & CEO of Edelweiss Mutual Fund, said the strategy aims to deliver a more consistent source of alpha for investors’ core portfolios.
According to Gupta, the strategy is designed around the objective of delivering predictable large-cap alpha through income-oriented derivatives strategies. It seeks to combine participation in large-cap equities with an additional income-generating component through derivatives.
In a social media post on X, Gupta said that, “Launching on 10th September, here is the link to Altiva's next SIF. It tries to deliver predictable large cap alpha using income oriented derivatives strategies.”
