Right Horizons PMS | Equity | | PMSIME's View on Right Horizons Flexicap
Strategy
Investment Fund
This is not a recommended fund, primarily because the AMC does not meet our selection criteria. We believe that there are better fund houses to invest in, within the Indian fund universe.
Fund's Strategy View
Benchmark agnostic sectoral exposure in companies across market caps. Portfolio composition is unconstrained concerning the benchmark and can move across market caps as per RH's proprietary asset allocation model. Typical Portfolio holding would not have more than 15-25 stocks.
Fund Performance
The fund has underperformed peers in the last 5yr trailing returns. In terms of longer-term annual performance, performance consistency has been mixed, with the fund having outperformed & underperformed the bechmark roughly in half the years.
IME's View on Right Horizons PMS
View on AMC
Right Horizons has achieved notable growth and scale, and can now be considered; however, we remain cautious given the high volatility in its annual performance.
AMC's Pedigree
Right Horizons has grown and improved its strategies, but it is not as reputable as other established PMS firms.
AMC Team
Anil Rego has gained investment experience at Right Horizons despite lacking prior experience, and the team has been bolstered by the addition of Piyush Sharma, an experienced investments professional.
Investment Philosophy
Right Horizons PMS does not have a PMS-level investment philosophy; strategies are defined at a scheme level.
