The Canara Robeco Focused Equity Fund distributes the majority of its investments across the banking, IT, auto components, retailing, and telecom services sectors. It is managed by Shridatta Bhandwaldar and Amit Kadam.

The scheme’s objective is to achieve long-term capital appreciation by investing in equity and related securities of up to 30 stocks across market capitalisations in large cap, mid cap, and small cap companies. It aims to achieve its objective by adopting an active investment approach, investing in companies with strong market positions, growth potential, good financial history, and capable management for long-term growth.

Pros & Cons

Pros

Cons

Since its inception, the Canara Robeco Focused Equity Fund’s annualised returns are above its benchmark, the S&P BSE 500 TRI Index. The 1-year annualised return for the Canara Robeco Focused Equity Fund is lower than the average for its category.
The scheme invests in stocks with an average return on equity (ROE) or return on capital employed (ROCE) greater than 18-20% over the past 10 years, potentially leading to higher returns and greater stability in the scheme’s portfolio. The scheme follows an active investment style, which may lead to higher fees than passively managed schemes.
It offers high downside protection by investing in well-established companies. This means that it strongly focuses on minimising losses during market downturns, providing stability to investors, and reducing the impact of market volatility.
