Why a Fund of Fund Structure?
Axis Mutual Fund highlights that the fund-of-fund approach minimizes reliance on a single investment style and enables faster, tax-efficient rebalancing.
This structure also increases access to a wide set of equity, debt, and commodity opportunities, allowing the Axis Multi-Asset Active FoF to shift quickly between outperforming segments without additional tax burden for investors.
B Gopkumar, MD & CEO, Axis AMC, said that the fund simplifies multi-asset investing by providing a single-window solution. He noted that the Axis Multi-Asset Active FoF is structured to help investors navigate different market cycles while aiming for improved risk-adjusted returns.
Ashish Gupta, CIO, Axis AMC, added that timing asset classes is challenging for most investors. He said the scheme uses a disciplined, model-driven strategy that combines quantitative insights with active oversight to capture opportunities across equity, debt, and commodities.

Suitability in the Current Market Environment
Axis Mutual Fund notes that current markets are witnessing heightened volatility, elevated equity valuations in select segments, stable conditions in debt markets, and increased global uncertainty – factors that have enhanced the appeal of commodities such as gold and silver. A multi-asset strategy helps balance these dynamics by spreading risk across asset classes.
The Axis Multi-Asset Active FoF aims to dynamically adjust exposure to capitalize on opportunities while mitigating downside risks. The scheme is suitable for investors with a minimum horizon of two years.
