Why Single-Asset Portfolios Fail in Shifting Regimes
Financial markets operate in cycles where different asset classes lead at different times. Equities thrive in economic expansions, debt provides stability in high-rate regimes, and gold hedges inflation. Multi-Asset Allocation Funds systematize this discipline.
1. Regulatory Structure & Rules
Under SEBI guidelines, a multi-asset allocation fund must allocate at least 10% of total assets across at least three distinct asset classes (typically Equities, Fixed Income, and Gold/Commodities).
2. Automatic Tax-Free Rebalancing
When an individual investor rebalances by selling equities to buy debt or gold, it triggers immediate capital gains tax. Inside a multi-asset fund, rebalancing occurs internally with zero immediate capital gains tax to unit holders.
