IME Strategy Rating

3 of 5 stars

Multi-cap Value Strategy: Valentis follow a 3 “U” Philosophy – aiming to buy stocks that are undervalued, underperforming and under-owned. The portfolio is positioned to have 20-40% exposure to large-cap companies outside of their typically small and mid-cap focus. Undervalued, underperforming & under-owned stocks are core differentiators and are well articulated.

PMS Scheme Ratings are driven by IME’s Proprietary Scheme Rating Methodology, which takes into account our ratings of the Scheme’s investment strategy, its maturity, the investment team, and our separate rating on the AMC that runs this particular scheme. Our views on each of these individual criteria are available via the IME RMS – which you can view by reaching out to one of our relationship managers (using either the live chat or book appointment feature on this site).

Valentis Multi-cap PMS- Investment Strategy

Focus on growth & Value

Investment Strategy 

  • Investing as an early beneficiary of earning cycle recovery: by having 20-40% exposure to large cap companies (top 100). This enables the portfolio to be a dynamic mix of established, liquid and mid-caps that may be greater beneficiaries of cyclical rebound. 
  • Rationale- Earnings doubling next 4-5 years:  Over the past 10 years returns have been driven by valuation re-rating with earnings rising at aggregate of 60% only. in the next 5 years they believe market returns will be driven mostly by earnings growth. Earnings growth will be robust. 
  • Focusing on sectors like corporate banks, capital goods, gainers from GST (ceramics), raw material price pressure (plastic processors, tyres), commercial vehicles, agro-chemicals.

Note: PMS AMC & Scheme Reviews and Ratings are based on IME Capital’s Proprietary Review and Rating Methodology (read more here: AMC Rating & Scheme Ratings). These reflect the unbiased views of our central research team, based on our assessment of the investment value of these PMS/AIF strategies for our investors. We follow a highly stringent rating-criteria, where approximately 50% of PMS AMC’s & strategies would be rated 2-star or below (this is not meant to indicate that these funds are not investment-worthy, but that they do not currently fulfill the requirements we focus on for recommending funds to our investors — based on our internal views on the merit of the AMC/strategy relative to peers). Reviews & Ratings are primarily based on research of publicly available information (SEBI disclosures, PMS websites, PMS-aggregation platforms, webinar recording, media interviews etc.) and no explicit consent is required from AMCs for the same. While we endeavour to do further due-diligence via direct interactions with the investment teams of AMCs, this is typically restricted to AMC’s that meet our foundational fund selection criteria (reviews on lower-rated AMCs are often based solely on publicly available information). The views reflected in our Reviews & Ratings, are our independent views and may not be shared by the AMC’s and the investment teams. Please read detailed disclaimer for more.
