Summary

The scheme's performance will be benchmarked against Crisil Balanced Fund Index and its fund managers are Apoorva Shah and Dhawal Dalal.

The Scheme seeks to generate income and / or capital appreciation by investing the appropriate asset allocation ratio between equity and debt by comparing the relative merits of investing in either asset class by considering the 'Yield Gap' ratio. Yield gap is defined as the ratio of 10-years Government Securities Yield (as a measure of long term interest rates) to the Nifty earnings Yield (as a measure of returns in equity markets). The scheme seeks to rebalance the portfolio based on relative returns of these two measures. The model also considers the modified yield gap, which uses 1Y G-Sec yield in the numerator.

Based on the back-testing exercise done by DSP BlackRock mutual Fund it is found that an asset portfolio constructed on the yield gap model, generates holistic returns, over a long term period (over 10 years ending on December 2013) compared to the equity market benchmark (Nifty).

This Scheme offers an active asset management approach and adjusts the asset allocation to changed market conditions.
