Tata AIA Life Insurance Co. Ltd. (Tata AIA), one of India's leading life insurers, has introduced Tata AIA NIFTY Alpha 50 Index Fund through its unit linked insurance products, which is an open-ended New Fund Offering (NFO) with an alpha investing strategy to benefit from potential growth while securing their loved ones with the protection of a life insurance cover. The NFO will remain open until September 30th, 2024, with units offered at an NAV of Rs. 10 per unit during the NFO period.
The fund will focus on high performing stocks i.e. the top 50 performing stocks that constitute the Nifty Alpha 50 index.
Why consumers should invest in the NIFTY Alpha Index Fund:
· It is a multi-cap market-linked investment fund, enabling policyholders to take exposure in high performing stocks that are part of different market cap segments.
· It will replicate the performance of stocks listed on NSE and generating high alpha. This will allow policyholders with the opportunity to earn higher returns given the focus on benchmark beating stocks.
· The fund will invest 80%-100% in Equity and Equity-related instruments, and 0%-20% in Cash and Money Market Securities. This will ensure a reasonable balance between returns and risk for the policyholders.
Commenting on the launch, Harshad Patil, Executive Vice President, and Chief Investment Officer (CIO) of Tata AIA said, "With India's economy expanding multifold over the next few decades, the Indian equity market presents significant wealth creation opportunities. As a result, businesses will be able to grow their revenues, multiply their earnings, and provide policyholders with sustained returns. With Tata AIA NIFTY Alpha 50 Index Fund, our policyholders can capture market trends effectively by focusing on high performing stocks across market caps. We can thus provide consumers with long-term returns, apart from life cover and health benefits offered by our investment linked solutions.
