A continuously evolving strategy, Says Quant MF Ceo Sandeep Tandon
We as a firm are evolving. Our strategy also keeps on evolving. We’re continuously looking at new data points, incorporating new things, and keep on modifying.
Quant MF isn’t just riding the bull markets
A lot of people think we deliver superior results in the bull market. Yes, 2020 calendar year was a good year. But look at the gaps we created in 2020.
The alpha among fund houses
If somebody’s industry average was ‘x’, we were ‘2x’ or ‘3x’ of that number. But look at calendar year 2022, where the industry has given negative returns.
Marked by resilience
Small-cap has given negative returns. 90% of the schemes were negative. Quant was the only mutual fund house where all the schemes gave positive returns between 10-30%. So, in a difficult year, we did a good job, says Quant’s Tandon.
A class apart
When we launched our BFSI fund, from June till December or January, we delivered 64% returns.
Breaking myths
So if the index is delivering hardly any return, and we generated 64% returns, which is as good as the small-cap index, as good as some of the bigger indices. So it is a myth to say that you generate alpha in a bull market. Actually, we’ve done a better job in the bear market.
