Risks and Mitigations

As the Scheme aims to track the FTSE India Equity Index (TRI) before expenses, it is inherently exposed to broad market movements which will directly impact the Scheme’s performance. Being a passive strategy, the Scheme will mirror the stock concentration and volatility profile of the underlying index, subject only to tracking error. No additional risk will arise from active fund manager decisions, as the Scheme does not undertake discretionary stock or sector allocations.

The Fund Manager will endeavour to minimise tracking error through disciplined rebalancing, efficient execution, and maintaining cash levels at the lowest practical threshold. While these measures are expected to substantially mitigate the above risks to a large extent, there can be no assurance that these risks would be completely eliminated
