Investment Objective: ICICI Prudential Global Stable Equity Fund (the Scheme) is an open-ended fund of funds scheme that seeks to provide adequate returns by investing in the units of one or more overseas mutual fund schemes, which have the mandate to invest globally. Currently the Scheme intends to invest in the units/shares of Nordea 1 Global Stable Equity Fund Unhedged (N1 GSEF - U). The fund manager may also invest in one or more other overseas mutual fund schemes, with similar investment policy/fundamental attributes and risk profile and is in accordance with the investment strategy of the Scheme. The Scheme may also invest a certain portion of its corpus in domestic money market securities and/or money market/liquid schemes of domestic mutual funds including that of ICICI Prudential Mutual Fund, in order to meet liquidity requirements from time to time. However, there can be no assurance that the investment objective of the Scheme will be realized. |

Small cap mutual funds, as defined by SEBI and AMFI, primarily invest in companies ranked 251st onwards in terms of market capitalization. They offer high growth potential as they invest in smaller, growing companies that could yield high returns. Moreover, they can uncover undervalued stocks that are often under-researched. Small-cap funds also bounce back quickly from economic downturns due to their adaptability. However, they have drawbacks like high volatility, and liquidity risk, and require a longer investment horizon. Although they carry significant risk, with informed decision-making, a clear understanding of the risk-reward paradigm, and guidance from skilled fund managers, they can contribute significantly to wealth creation.
Large-cap mutual funds invest in large, established companies, offering investors the potential for consistent returns and lower risk due to their stability and diversification across sectors. These funds, managed by professional fund managers, also offer high liquidity and the potential for regular dividend payouts. However, drawbacks include limited growth potential, as these mature companies operate at or near their peak in saturated markets. Also, they aren't immune to economic downturns and offer less control to investors over their investments. The suitability of these funds depends on an individual's financial goals, risk tolerance, and investment horizon.
