Multi-Asset Allocation funds are hybrid mutual fund schemes which invest in 3 or more asset classes. According to SEBI regulations, multi-asset allocation funds must invest a minimum of 10% each in at least 3 asset classes. Apart from the two most popular asset classes, debt and equity, these schemes invest in asset classes like commodities (e.g. gold, silver), international equities, real estate investment trusts (REIT), infrastructure investment trusts (InvITs), etc. The fund manager decides the proportional allocation to each asset class based on the market conditions to balance risks and returns.

Through the Systematic Withdrawal Plan (SWP) facility you can withdraw a fixed amount every month or any other interval from your investments in a Canara Robeco Mutual Fund scheme.
The chart below shows the results of Rs 30,000 monthly SWP from a Rs 50 lakhs in a hypothetical Multi Asset Allocation portfolio comprising of 65% in equity (Nifty 50 TRI), 20% in debt (Nifty 10-year Benchmark G-Sec Index) and 15% in gold, over the last 10 years. You can see that, despite withdrawing Rs 36 lakhs from your investment of Rs 50 lakhs through monthly SWP, your capital would have grown to Rs 77 lakhs (as on 1st April 2024). The relative stability provided by multi asset funds in volatile markets makes them suitable for SWP, since withdrawals during volatile market phases have relatively limited impact on fund value.
