AMC View
We maintain a neutral stance on the SIF arm of 360One AMC. While the SIF structure offers access to more sophisticated and differentiated investment strategies, it remains relatively new and lacks a meaningful track record, warranting caution given the higher complexity and risks involved. That said, investors specifically seeking advanced or differentiated strategies may consider this AMC, while acknowledging the limited operating history of the SIF platform
AMC Pedigree
Dyna SIF is housed within 36One AMC, a large wealth management and brokerage firm in India with a strong focus on hiring experienced professionals. While the SIF platform itself is new, its credibility is anchored in 360One AMC’s decades-long experience in managing strategies across asset classes and structures.
Team Pedigree
The team is led by Anup Maheshwari (Group CIO), a well-known equity fund manager, and Harsh Agarwal (Head – SIF), who brings strong alternatives experience, including managing long-short strategies at Tata AMC The platform is further supported by 360 ONE AMC’s broader research team, which strengthens coverage and idea generation across sectors.
Investment Philosophy
Dyna SIF does not adhere to a single overarching investment philosophy at the AMC level, instead employing frameworks designed on a strategy-specific basis. Given that the SIF platform is still new, the AMC is in the process of establishing and refining its operating and investment frameworks within this structure
