Aequitas PMS

PMS Rating

IME PMS Rating

4 of 5 stars

Recommended small-cap manager: The combination of a founder-fund manager, a proven longer-term track record and a clear focused specialisation in identifying small-cap winners makes Aequitas a strong AMC to invest in for more aggressive investors. The main concern is a high min investment requirement, which can be a bottleneck for many investors.

The PMS/AIF AMC Rating is derived on the basis of our analysis on 5 key qualitative parameters that we use to analyse the quality of a PMS/AIF Provider. These include an assessment of the size of the AMC, the pedigree of the AMC, the pedigree of the team, the value of the investment philosophy & the level of differentiation. These insights of our central research team are documented in the IME RMS, and can be accessed during a consultation call with an IME PMS specialist.

AMC Background

The combination of a founder-fund manager, a proven longer-term track record and a clear focused specialisation in identifying small-cap winners makes Aequitas a strong AMC to invest in for more aggressive investors. 

Aequitas has developed its AMC credentials, on the back of sustained outperformance delivered by Siddhartha Bhaiya’s small-cap picks. The AMC has scaled well and is considered to be a strong specialist in small-cap picks.

Investment Philosophy

Aequitas’s Investment Philosophy revolves around delivering outsized returns, by investing in small-cap undiscovered companies. Aequitas does not follow a model portfolio approach, instead choosing to build customised portfolios for individual clients. The process of identifying multi-baggers includes investing in companies that offer a combination of high growth, a contrarian approach and stocks that offer value (providing a re-rating potential).
