ICICI Prudential PMS PIPE Strategy

Investment Objective: ICICI Prudential PMS PIPE Strategy (the Strategy) aims to provide long-term capital appreciation and generate returns by investing predominantly in Mid and Small Cap segment of the market by having exposure in companies enjoying some economic moat; and/or undergoing special situations or in the midst of unfavourable business cycle.

The Strategy aims to provide long-term capital appreciation and generate returns by investing into companies, primarily in the Mid and Small Cap segment of the market. For defensive considerations, while waiting for expected investment opportunities or to meet the liquidity requirements from time to time, the Strategy may invest in debt and money market instruments or units of debt and money market mutual fund schemes.

The Strategy may look to invest in companies which are fundamentally strong and which may be considered to be one of the market leaders in their industries. Additionally, the Strategy will aim to invest in companies where the market capitalization at the time of investment is very small but has the potential to become large because of various dynamics like strong / upcoming business line, effective management, improving margins etc.

The Portfolio Manager shall consider one or more of the following aspects for identifying the stocks to invest in:

• Long Term calls on stocks which have the potential to offer returns.
• Stocks which have potential growth opportunities provided by business cyclicality, special situations, and/or mispricing by the market.
• Qualitative assessment based on the concept of ‘Moat’ which allows a firm to earn above-average returns on capital over a long period of time. Concept of Moat provides an analytical framework for selecting companies that usually perform better as compared to their competitors for a number of years the moat exists.

The Portfolio Manager under the Strategy predominantly invests in mid and small capitalisation companies which may be undergoing special situations or are in the midst of unfavourable business cycle.
