One of the biggest advantages of investing in flexi-cap funds is diversification. As these funds invest across the market cap, i.e., large, mid and Small cap funds, they diversify the portfolio. So, instead of investing in just one market cap, you can invest in flexi-cap funds and benefit from all.
The fund managers of flexi-cap funds invest in companies of all sizes based on their long-term growth potential. In order to maximize the fund's performance within defined investment objectives, the managers also change the portfolio allocations between different sectors from time to time.
As flexi-cap invests in large, mid and small cap funds, they have potential to deliver long-term consistent returns.
These funds are known to balance risk and returns well. For instance, in some market situations, if one fund fails to perform, other funds are there to balance the returns. So, investors seek the advantage of balancing the risk-and-returns from this fund.

A: Flexi-cap funds produce high returns, but these are often considered high-risk funds. The primary reason for this is that these equities are often affected by market conditions leading to the ROI difference. However, if you have an appetite for risk, you can invest in some of the best performing Flexi-cap Mutual Funds, and these are known to produce excellent returns.
A: As per the SEBI rules, it is necessary to invest 25%
of the assets in large, mid, and small Capital stocks. This diversification ensures that your investment is secure and you can get a better Return on Investment.
A: A fund manager can help you in evaluating a particular segment of the market. If, over time, he feels that the segment has become unattractive, then he can pull the investment from the specific segment and reinvest in another segment. This secures your investment and ensures you receive better returns.
A: All Flexi-cap funds do not levy exit loads if you leave the segment before the realization of the specific number of days. For example, a particular Flexi-cap can impose an exit load of 2%
of the investment value if you switch or redeem your investment before 365 days and 1%
in case you change before 763 days. However, mutual funds do not levy any exit loads if you switch assets after two years.
A: The green levy encourages companies to invest in environment-friendly technologies, and the government gives such companies various tax benefits. If your investment portfolio consists of Flexi-cap mutual funds that invest in companies that follow environment-friendly technologies.
A: The best way to identify the best performing fund is by checking the its past 4-year returns. For example, the Baroda Pioneer Multi-Cap Fund, which has a NAV of Rs.129.8 and a 5-year return of 19.5%, is better than the Principal Multi Cap Growth Fund, which has a NAV of Rs.178.78 and a 5-year return of 15%.
