Quant Mutual Fund has launched the Quant Equity Ex-Top 100 Long-Short Fund, a new Specialised Investment Fund (SIF) that aims to generate long-term capital appreciation by investing beyond the top 100 listed companies while using long-short strategies for risk management.

The open-ended scheme will invest 65%–100% of its assets in equity and equity-related instruments of companies outside the top 100 by market capitalisation, and up to 35% in firms within the top 100. It may also invest up to 35% in debt and money market instruments, and up to 20% in REITs and InvITs.

The fund can take short positions up to 25% of its portfolio through derivatives, providing flexibility to manage downside risk and potentially enhance returns.

The New Fund Offer (NFO) is currently open and will close on
