Investment Philosophy
The Emkay Pearls portfolio is based on a bottom-up stock-picking strategy. It employs a research-backed approach to investing in well-managed companies with proven management and track record. The study identifies good companies via industry headwinds or corporate issues, many of which are at a turning point in their business cycle. They use in-house solutions such as E-Qual (India’s first governance-specific stock-picking model) to minimize the hazards linked to management quality.
Investment Strategy
Emkay Pearls tries to create long-term financial success by investing in a well-diversified equity portfolio based on sound and research-backed principles.
The objective is to invest in 15-20 small and mid-cap companies using the BSE Midcap benchmark index as a guide. It employs a unique Bargain Hunting technique to identify possible equities with depressing current valuations that would provide greater returns in the long run.
The product portfolio has an average investment tenure of over five years. AIF’s investment management policy mandates investment minimum maturity period for all investments at the time of acquisition and a maximum permissible residual tenor of up to three months from date of purchase, subject to sectoral limits as per investment policy.
