PMS Rating

IME PMS Rating

3 of 5 stars

Can be considered for investment: We are great believers in investment managers having a laser focus on their areas of expertise, as compared to trying to do too many things at the same time. Trivantage PMS is a PMS provider that is laser-focused on a single sector (financials), with investments managed by a financial sector veteran, which makes it one of the most attractive BFSI sector funds in the market.

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.
