First Global Super 50

Scheme Rating

IME Scheme Rating

3 of 5 stars

Diversified Multi-cap fund yet to establish longer-term credentials: We would wait for First Global’s Super 50 strategy to mature a bit more, to understand it’s performance across market cycles, to gain a better sense of how the combination of Human + AI performs relative to other managers. Given the incremental AI-ML element, and the lack of a past publicly-managed money track record of it’s Founder & CIO Devina Mehra (an established equities professional), we place a higher level of importance on the performance of this strategy to mature before actively recommending this for investments.

IME Strategy Rating

3 of 5 stars

Highly Diversified Muticap Strategy: India Super 50 seeks to achieve steady, low-volatility returns by investing in a diversified 50 stock portfolio across sectors. This list of 50 stocks are identified from a larger list that is thrown up using AI-ML technologies, that comb through mountains of financial data, annual reports, conference call transcripts, press coverage, social media chatter, macroeconomic data, quantitative sentiment indicators, etc. The aim is that an AI-ML approach, helps First Global remain completely neutral, unbiased and unemotional about their selections & being clinical on exis strategies. A human portfolio construction overlay is added to the AI-ML approach, leading to a Human + Machine model used by First Global.
