Axis NIFTY G-Sec September 2032 Index Fund
The scheme would be allocating 95% to 100% of its portfolio to debt instruments comprising of the NIFTY G-Sec September 2032 Index and the remaining in Debt and Money Market instruments (Please refer to SID for detailed Asset Allocation & Investment Strategy and other scheme related features available at www.axismf.com). Furthermore, the Scheme will follow Buy and Hold investment strategy in which debt instruments of the respective index will be held till maturity unless sold for meeting redemptions/rebalancing.
Target maturity funds allow investors to access specific maturity buckets. The transparent nature of such a strategy provides investors a clear picture of the portfolio and the instrument mix. As a passive fund, the Axis NIFTY G-Sec September 2032 Index Fund aims to replicate a designated index created by reputed index providers. The ‘held to maturity’ nature of target maturity strategies aims to minimize duration risk for investors who remain invested through the life of the fund.
